Michael Stutchbury (born 4 May 1957) is the editor-in-chief of the Australian Financial Review[1] and formerly The Australian' economics editor.[1] He generally writes from a free market viewpoint, and was critical of a number of the Rudd-Gillard Government's economic policies, particularly on its stimulus packages,[2] and industrial relations.[citation needed]

Born in Melbourne, Stutchbury began his journalistic career with the Australian Financial Review.[1] Later, he became a business editor of The Australian, and a Washington correspondent during the first term of the Clinton Administration, before becoming one of the longest-serving editors of The Australian.

He is the father of 2018 NSW Young Liberals President, Harry Stutchbury.[3] In July 2018, Michael Stutchbury married Ticky Fullerton in the UK.[4]

He occasionally appears on Insiders, the ABC's weekly program on political discussion.
