In early 2004 founding editor Peter Craven was sacked by the magazine's owner, property developer Morry Schwartz, over a dispute about the joint authorship of one essay, and, more widely, the magazine's future direction. Schwartz stated that while he had a vision of the magazine as more "political and Australian" whereas Craven was perhaps "more broad and internationalist".[1]
