Farewell to fair thinking?

Article Abstract:

Hugh White, head of The Australian Strategic Policy Institute (ASPI), will be quitting his job for further studies and a worldwide hunt is on to find a replacement to fill his huge boots. The ASPI has occasionally criticized the government's policies, but it has always helped the government with material, which is of great value, and with White moving away many fear that the ASPI will loose its objectivity.
