		Kingston was born in Maryborough, Queensland and was raised in Mackay.
		Kingston gained prominence in 1998 when she led a sit-in of journalists at the federal election campaign launch of the One Nation Party in the Queensland town of Gatton.

	catallaxy » Making Citizen Journalism Pay
		Margo Kingston admits she has no idea how to make her new Webdiary pay.
		Kingston is not a "respected journalist", and while I disagree with her as often as I agree, I mean that as a big compliment.
		Margo already knows who she wants to head hunt for the top job "I’d like Tom Burton to leave Fairfax and be the CEO of Webdiary" she told Richard Aedy, "he was the person who made The Sydney Morning Herald online the greatest site in Australia, where no one cared, including the suits."

	THANK YOU MARGO KINGSTON (Mary Dagmar Davies) \| Your Democracy
		When historians document these times Margo Kingston's 'Not Happy, John' and 'Off the Rails: The Pauline Hanson Trip' will be key to understanding how one vengeful politician was assisted in the destruction of democracy in Australia.
		Margo Kingston abided by the ethics of journalism where many of her colleagues failed.
		Thank you Margo Kingston, my hope for the future is renewed after reading your book and recognising the movement it has created.

		A strong advocate of the new interactive weblogs that are growing increasingly popular amongst the general public, Margo Kingston is visiting Perth to present her views on independent journalism and open discussion.
		Margo Kingston was the political commentator for the ‘Sydney Morning Herald’ online (www.smh.com.au), edited the Fairfax Webdiary (www.smh.com.au/webdiary) and until 13 June 2004, wrote a weekly column on politics in the Sun Herald.

	The Media Report: 1 September 2005 - Margo, Unplugged
		Margo Kingston: Because Fairfax was no longer willing to support my vision for Webdiary, and I was determined that my vision would continue.
		Margo Kingston: The real fear I had was that my right-wingers wouldn’t come across, because the last thing we need is yet another leftie enclave or again another right-wing enclave.
		Margo Kingston: Well I’d like to talk about more of it in terms of the dream, and my dream is to be part of a rapidly growing and increasingly important independent media.

	Margo Kingston's Independent Webdiary and Club Chaos: the Fremantle WA launch

		Now that we are entering an election year with great hopes of success, it might be appropriate to take a close look at the political history of another populist movement that went “off the rails” during an election campaign to make sure that the same thing doesn’t happen again to the Greens.
		Margo describes the saga throughout the entire campaign as she covered the event for the Sydney Morning Herald.
		For example Margo points out the arrogance and duplicity of David Oldfield who thought and acted as if he was the true leader of the party.

	Bleeding Edge: Margo Kingston abdicates
		Political journalist and founder of the Sydney Morning Herald's Webdiary has pulled the plug on her venture into independent journalism, on the perfectly understandable grounds that the enterprise sent her broke.
		Margo has proved herself to be quite the master of the cryptic comment, given that she's in the communications business.
		While it's very worthy of her to give all these new voices a forum, and while we support the idea of grassroots journalism, we found we couldn't warm to many of the contributors to Webdiary..

	The Review - Scribblings
		Journalist Margo Kingston, who does the Webdiary section of the Sydney Morning Herald website, has apologised for her latest comments that "the fundamentalist Zionist lobby controls politics and the media in the US and Australia" (July 22).
		What’s interesting about this is that Kingston appears absolutely convinced that everyone, or at least everyone she knows, agrees that a "fundamentalist Zionist lobby" controls politics and the media.
		Margo Kingston is additional proof, if any is needed.

		I never dreamed that any real journalist would get away with putting their byline at the top of an article, writing an entry quote and one paragraph and then abandoning the whole of the rest of the article to be filled up by quotes from a mate of theirs.

	Its A Matter Of Opinion » Blog Archive » Radical Moonbat Gallery – Margo Kingston
		Margo also fancies herself to be a journalist but slowly even the sad socialist rag called Sydney Morning Herald cuts its links with her and so she operates mostly from Not Happy John (where she’s peddling her book under the same title) and The Northern Rivers Echo.
		Yet, Margo is smart enough to know deep down that she doesn’t really know much and so she worked out her own unique journalistic style to cover her hind quarters.
		Margo usually starts her stories by dropping some facts without explaining the core meaning and the background of the issue in question.

	Club Troppo » Margo Kingston’s Comedy Central…
		Margo’s comments are so fatuous and dishonest (and with the support of the Sydney Morning Herald, mind you), that you wonder if there is any limit to what this woman could publish.
		Margo would’t know illiterate babble if it jumped up and bit her on one of her body parts that produces the stuff she doesn’t flush.
		Margo Kingston is part of the commentariat and her views can be infuriating as much as Hendo’s or anyone.

	American RealPolitik: Garage doors against the war (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		Margo seems to conveniently forget the huge strain that cities place upon the ecosystem due to the very unnatural manner in which they force humans to live in densities which far exceed the ability of the environment to cope with them.
		Margo's income and fame are directly related to just how well she ascertains the movements of the far left and mimics them to retain readership.
		What Margo, along with the rest of the left needs to realize, is that the majority is not going to be cowed because a vocal minority begins screaming a bit louder...and screaming louder in no way makes your arguments more valid.

	John Quiggin: My say on Margo (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		After Philip Adams, Margo Kingston is the journalist Australian bloggers love to hate, though she is not without able defenders.
		You can then look at Margo's article and see if she was making any assertion about root causes.
		Arguably, Margo would have been better off waiting to clarify her thoughts before writing anything on the subject*, but this isn't always an option for a working journalist.

		Kingston’s error was not a mistake; it wasn’t something you can apologise for; you can’t come back from where she’s been.
