One person has been killed and two others are critically injured following a stabbing attack in Sydney's west.

New South Wales police has decided not to extend restrictions on protests in Sydney, a week after officers and protesters clashed in the city centre.The controversial laws grant police the power to refuse public protests for up to 90 days after a terrorist incident and have been in place since the Bondi attack.The restrictions do not outright ban protests but remove certain legal protections for protesters, particularly those marching through the streets.They've been widely criticised by civil liberty groups and activists.Meanwhile police in Sydney say they're looking for a driver and offender after a former NRL player was seriously injured in a drive-by shooting.Matt Utai's recovering in hospital after the shooting in the suburb of Greenacre.Police say they don't believe he's involved in organised crime, but are still investigating if he was meant to be the target of the shooting.Utai played for Wests Tigers and the Canterbury Bulldogs during his career which included premiership.Highly sensitive Australian court files have been accessed by foreign actors in breach of the law and contract obligations, prompting fears of a national security risk.An ABC investigation found court files have been accessed by contractors based in India, without the knowledge of the courts.Federal Greens senator David Shoebridge says the information in the wrong hands could do incredible damage.The federal court says it's looking into the matter.

Opposition leader Angus Taylor has unveiled his new-look front bench, promoting key allies and relegating backers of ousted Liberal leader Sussan Ley.Deputy Liberal Leader Jane Hume will become shadow minister for employment and industrial relations.Tim Wilson will become the shadow treasurer and Senator Jacinta Nampijimpa Price will be elevated back into shadow cabinet into the skills and training portfolio.Alex Hawke, Andrew Wallace, Paul Scarr and Melissa Price are among those to be dumped from the front-bench.A Perth court has heard a man charged with a terrorism offence over an alleged attack on an Invasion Day rally has "conspiratorial views".Liam Alexander Hall was charged after allegedly throwing a homemade bomb into a crowd - including engaging in a terrorist act.In court, his lawyer said he had a mental health condition, and was unwell.A suppression order was also lifted - allowing media to name Mr Hall.Private Health Insurance premiums will rise on average 4.41 per cent in April this year.Health Minister Mark Butler says the government agreed to the annual increase after asking insurers to resubmit their premium requests multiple times.This year's premium rise also reflects increasing health worker wage bills and the viability of private hospitals, following high profile hospital and unit closures in 2025.

Liberal senator Jonno Duniam says the Federal Government must prioritise national security over the rights of Australians with links to Islamic State.A group of Australians, including 23 children and their mothers, who married ISIS fighters, intend to make their way from a camp in north-eastern Syria to Australia.The Albanese government says it will not help repatriate them.Senator Duniam says the question of how to manage the children is a difficult one - but the parents are to blame for their situation.SA Police is nearing the end of a renewed search for Gus Lamont in South Australia's mid-north, with no evidence found.The second day of searching has focused on a neighbouring property owned by Gus's family, around 30 kilometres west of Oak Park Station where the four-year-old disappeared nearly five months ago.This morning, detectives scoured a remote area of a sheep station, inspected a water tank and an outhouse where fresh cement had recently been laid.The man accused of throwing a bomb into a crowd at a Perth Invasion Day rally in an alleged act of terrorism can be named as Liam Alexander HallPolice allege the 32-year-old threw what they described as a homemade "fragment bomb" filled with ball bearings and screws into the crowd in the heart of Perth's CBD.Earlier this month he became the first person in WA's history to be charged with a terrorism offence.

Attorney-General Michelle Rowland says the federal government and security agencies are closely monitoring the IS-linked families who want to return to Australia.The ABC understands 11 families of jailed or killed Islamic State fighters have returned to a camp in Syria after trying to begin their journey back to Australia on Monday.It's not yet clear whether the families will attempt the trip again in the coming days.Michelle Rowland has re-iterated the government will not repatriate the cohort.A new report from the Australian Human Rights Commission reveals racism is widespread and systemic in Australian universities76,000 students and staff from 42 Australian universities took part in the Racism-at-Uni study, which found 15 per cent of respondents have experienced direct racism, while 70 per cent reported experiencing indirect racism.The survey reports only 11 universities have advanced, standalone racism strategies, and makes 47 recommendations calling for a national anti-racism framework.A man has undergone emergency surgery after surviving an early morning drive by shooting outside the family home in south-west Sydney.Police are refusing to confirm the victim was former rugby league star Matt Utai, but the Canterbury Bulldogs have released a statement saying the club is praying for Utai and hopes he makes a full recovery.Police say the 44 year old was hit in the upper body and leg when a gunman opened fire from an SUV as he left home for work at 6 this morning.

If you ever want to understand why legacy media is hemorrhaging credibility faster than a leaky stimulus package, watch what happens when it tries to weaponize arithmetic against common sense.Recently, ABC News decided to present what it clearly believed was a jaw-dropping exposé: roughly $40 million spent to deport more than two million illegal immigrants in 2025.Cue ominous music. Cue furrowed anchor brow. Then, cue the implication that fiscal apocalypse had arrived in the shape of an ICE bus.Instead, the internet did what the internet does best. It grabbed a calculator.Forty million dollars. Two million deportations. That is about $20 per removal. Twenty dollars. You cannot Uber someone to the airport for that.And yet the presentation suggested scandal.For years, Democrats and their allies have insisted that illegal immigration is “cost-positive.” They have painted a portrait of a parallel workforce that magically expands GDP, fills labor gaps, and somehow does all this while simultaneously qualifying for means-tested benefits, subsidized education, emergency healthcare, housing assistance, and a buffet of state-level entitlements.It is a neat trick. The kind that only works if you never total the receipts.The Federation for American Immigration Reform has repeatedly estimates that illegal immigration costs American taxpayers well over $100 billion annually when federal, state, and local expenditures are included. Even if one disputes the exact number, the categories are indisputable: public education, Medicaid, emergency medical care, incarceration, infrastructure strain. These are not ideological abstractions. They are line items.Yet here comes a headline implying that $40 million is a grotesque extravagance.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Bondi Beach terror attack gunman, Naveed Akram has, appeared in court for the first time.The 24-year-old faces 59 charges including 15 counts of murder and one of committing a terrorist attack over the shooting in December.Akram's father Sajid Akram was killed by police during the shooting at Bondi on December 14, which took place while a Jewish event Chanukah by the Sea was being held in Archer Park.Mr Akram's lawyer says it 's too early to say how his client will plead.Police believe an elderly man mistakenly kidnapped from his home in north-west Sydney is still alive.It's alleged a number of offenders grabbed 85-year-old Chris Baghsarian from his North Ryde bedroom early on Friday morning and bundled him into a car.Police say the kidnappers have the wrong man and his family is not involved in any criminal activity.The ACCC's bombshell lawsuit against supermarket giant Coles has kicked off in Melbourne this morning.  The consumer watchdog is accusing the supermarket giant of ripping off customers by hiking prices for a short period of time, before dropping them for their "Down Down" promotion.Coles claims the price rises were justified, citing high inflation and supplier demands.

The opening day of a landmark case in the Federal Court between the ACCC and Coles has adjourned.The consumer watchdog is seeking to prove the supermarket giant breached consumer law by misleading customers with fake discounts.Coles' legal counsel has told the court that the case hinged on whether the supermarket was justified in lowering the prices of a basket of goods, raising them for a brief period, and then lowering them again.Earlier, lawyers representing the A-triple-C labelled the price discounts as "utterly misleading".Police investigating the disappearance of four-year-old Gus Lamont on a remote South Australian station say they've charged a person with unrelated offences.It's understood Gus Lamont's grandmother, Josie Murray, was arrested and charged with firearms offences, as police conducted another search of Oak Park Station, near Yunta.Police say the charges aren't related to the disappearance of the boy from the property in September.Earlier this month, they said a person living at the property was considered a suspect in Gus's disappearance, but stressed his parents weren't being investigated.American journalist, Savannah Guthrie, has appealed to the kidnappers of her 84 year old mother, Nancy, to "do the right thing" and release her.Police believe Nancy Guthrie was abducted from her home in Arizona two weeks ago .They are now examining DNA from a glove recovered three kilometres away, which appears to match the pair worn by a masked prowler seen in doorbell camera footage.

Coles has been accused by the consumer watchdog of a planned campaign to mislead customers on the prices of hundreds of items.On the opening day of a Federal Court case in Melbourne, the ACCC claimed the conduct by Coles was planned and that it would have violated the supermarket's internal policies but they were changed prior to the Down Down program discounts in question.Coles has rejected the allegations that the discounts were fake and says rampant inflation was behind the price increases.  The Bondi Beach terror attack gunman Naveed Akram has appeared on a video link before a Sydney court for the first time since his arrest in December.It was a largely procedural mention of the case about suppression orders over the identities of survivors.The 24 year old is facing nearly 60 charges, including 15 counts of murder and one of committing a terrorist act, over the shooting at Bondi during a Jewish event on December 14.He is yet to make a plea.Police believe an elderly man mistakenly kidnapped from his home in north-west Sydney is still alive and are pleading for his safe release.It's alleged three people kidnapped 85-year-old Chris Baghsarian from his home in North Ryde early on Friday morning.The ABC understands a video of Mr Baghsarian was filmed by his kidnappers and distributed by his captors, and that police believe the kidnappers may have been targeting a different family nearby.. with links to organised crime.But police say they have the wrong man. 

The family of an elderly Sydney man who detectives believe was mistakenly kidnapped five days ago say they're worried about the 85-year-old's welfare.Police believe up to three people kidnapped Chris Baghsarian and are adamant the suspects have taken the wrong person and were actually looking for someone from a crime family.In a post on Facebook, his cousin said the victim grew up in in Israel, before emigrating to Australia.The cousin added he asked police if he could deliver medication to his relative's captors, but was warned it was too dangerous.Australian families with links to Islamic State fighters are assessing their options after being turned around by Syrian authorities.The ABC understands they were heading for Damascus, with plans to travel to Australia.Among the cohort are the wives of Islamic State fighters who were either captured or killed.The Australian government says it's not repatriating people from Syria, and security agencies will monitor those who return.Hollywood actor Robert Duvall, who was known for his roles in Apocalypse Now and The Godfather movies has died, aged 95.He also won an Oscar for best actor for his performance as an alcoholic former country music star in the 1983 film Tender Mercies.He's being remembered as an actor who was versatile, technically proficient, and convincing. 

The Bondi gunman has appeared on a video link for the first time in a Sydney court. Naveed Akram is being held in custody at Goulburn supermax prison and his lawyer says he's doing as well as can be expected.15 people were killed and dozens more were injured during the shooting in mid-December which took place while a Jewish event was being held at Bondi Beach.The Federal Treasury is considering changes to Australia's tobacco excise, after previously rejecting the idea that cutting the cost of cigarettes would solve the problem of the illegal tobacco trade.Experts are pushing for a freeze to the excise, which has grown by 60 per cent since 2020 and is due to rise again next month.They say the tax's effectiveness is waning and that freezing it will allow the government to catch up to the illegal market. A state of emergency is in place for a large area north of Wellington in New Zealand due to wild weather, with tens of thousands of people without electricity across the country's North Island.Authorities say 20 vehicles are stuck in a mud slide in Taihape, and that mass evacuations are underway. Air New Zealand has cancelled flights in and out of Wellington and Napier because of strong winds, and Cook Strait ferries, which sail between the North and South Islands, are not running today.Preparations are now underway, as the weather makes its way to the South Island.

New liberal leader Angus Taylor has put taxes, housing, and nuclear energy on his agenda in the wake of last week's leadership spill. Mr Taylor won the leadership ballot convincingly against Sussan Ley, and has since been keen to let Australians know what direction the party will take. A tougher approach to immigration is also on the table for the opposition, with Mr Taylor declaring, "the door must be shut" to people who don't align with "Australian values".Federal treasurer Jim Chalmers has accused the Coalition of playing politics with migration. Gaza's civil defence agency and health officials have reported at least 12 Palestinians have been killed and several injured across Gaza, after the Israeli military carried out airstrikes. A Hamas spokesperson accused Israel of committing a new massacre against displaced Palestinians, calling it a serious breach of the ceasefire.An Israeli military official said forces attacked in response to Hamas violations of the ceasefire agreement. Preparations are underway across the country ahead of the start of the Lunar New Year tomorrow.Hundreds of millions of people worldwide will take part in the 15-day Lunar celebration, marking the Year of the Fire Horse.The Fire Horse last appeared in 1966 and is associated with strong energy, courage and momentum in Chinese culture.

The family of an 85-year-old man, who detectives believe was mistakenly kidnapped in Sydney five days ago, has paid tribute to him and appealed for his safe release.Police are adamant the abduction of Chris Baghsarian by up to three people is a case of mistaken identity and his kidnappers were actually looking for someone with links to a crime family.In a post on Facebook, the 85-year-old's cousin said the victim grew up in Israel before emigrating to Australia, and appealed for his immediate release.Police are worried about his welfare after becoming aware of a hostage video.A group of Australian families linked to Islamic State fighters have been forced to return to a detention camp in Syria.The ABC's been told there are 34 people in the group who were trying to journey home to Australia.But they were stopped by Syrian authorities.The federal government says it won't repatriate people from Syria and those who've committed a crime will meet the full force of the law if they do return.Police investigating the disappearance of four-year-old Gus Lamont on a remote South Australian station say they've charged a person with unrelated offences.It's understood Gus Lamont's grandmother, Josie Murray, was arrested and charged with firearms offences, as police conducted another search of the Oak Park station.The whereabouts of Gus is still not known.One of Hollywood's greatest icons, Robert Duvall, has died aged 95.Some of his biggest roles came in the Godfather films and Apocalypse Now.His wife announced his death on social media, saying he passed away peacefully, addingher husband gave everything to his characters, leaving something lasting and unforgettable.New federal opposition leader Angus Taylor says he hasn't seen a leaked Coalition policy proposal which suggests a ban on migrants from declared terrorist areas.The policy reportedly proposes banning migrants from a list of regions including in Somalia and Gaza.The new Liberal leader says the document has "no validity" and it hasn't gone through shadow cabinet. 

The prime minister's confirmed the government will not help repatriate a group of Australian families with links to Islamic state fighters.They've been forced to return to a detention camp in Syria, after trying to journey home.Anthony Albanese's responded to that development, saying "if you make your bed, you lie in it".The issue is a thorny one because the camps are apparently dangerous for families and children, so there's been pressure on the government to help them get out of there.But there are concerns about the risk the group poses to Australia if they return, given their connection to the brutal Islamic State ideology.Former NRL winger Matt Utai is in a serious condition in hospital, after being shot twice in a drive-by shooting in the Sydney suburb of Greenacre.Police say a car was located on fire a short time later on a nearby street, and detectives believe it's linked to the shooting.Utai played 167 games, for the Wests Tigers and Canterbury Bulldogs and was part of the Bulldogs' premiership winning team in 2004.Bree Walker has missed out on the medals in the Women's monobob at the Winter Olympics.Walker was highly favoured heading into the games after five podium finishes this World Cup season but couldn't find the speed required on the track to challenge for a medal.More broadly Australia's in the midst of its greatest Winter Olympics campaign and has been especially successful in moguls skiing. 

A renewed search for missing boy Gus Lamont will continue today and it comes as his grandmother, Josie Murray, faces firearms charges unrelated to his disappearance from a South Australian property in September.Detectives returned to Oak Park Station near Yunta yesterday to search for the four-year-old.Gus's grandparents say the family has fully cooperated with police and they're devastated the case has been declared a major crime.New Liberal leader Angus Taylor has distanced himself from a leaked draft immigration policy that proposes banning people coming to Australia from terror-declared areas.The proposal was developed under former leader Sussan Ley but never discussed in full with shadow cabinet.The opposition leader's still pushing for stronger security checks for migrants, as he prepares to unveil his new shadow cabinet.Legendary Hollywood actor Robert Duvall is being remembered as a versatile performer who was dedicated to his craft.He captured the haunting reality of war in Vietnam, in Apocalypse Now, giving one of cinema's most unforgettable lines, "I love the smell of napalm in the morning".He also starred in the Godfather films and won the Oscar for best actor in 1983 for Tender Mercies.His wife says he gave everything to his characters.

Victoria's bracing for extreme fire weather today, as hot, dry, and windy conditions are forecast across the state.Total fire bans have been declared in several districts.Fire chiefs say they're particularly concerned about dry grass in paddocks catching fire in urban fringe areas.Authorities say the state is a tinderbox especially after a very dry January.The opposition is putting pressure on the Albanese Government to block Australian citizens returning home if they've subscribed to the ideology of the Islamic State group.A group of Australian woman who've been stuck in a refugee camp in Syria with their children are trying to come home, raising concerns about whether they pose a threat in Australia.They were married to Islamic State fighters who were captured and killed.The Federal Government isn't going to help them return and if they do they'll face close scrutiny from intelligence and law enforcement agencies.The ABC understands the victim of a drive-by shooting in Sydney's west is former NRL winger Matt Utai.Utai played for the Wests Tigers and Canterbury Bulldogs and is now in a serious condition in hospital.Police say an car was found on fire a short time after the shooting on a nearby street in Greenacre, and detectives believe it's linked to the incident.Utai played 167 games and was part of the premiership winning Bulldogs team in 2004.

Nearly everything the public knows about Anna Kepner's death aboard the Carnival Horizon emerged not from the FBI — which maintained complete silence for ninety days — but from a custody dispute between the suspect's divorced parents.Those court filings revealed text messages showing the parents focused on damage control within hours of Anna's body being found hidden under a bed. The suspect's mother texted that her son "just keeps repeating over and over he can't remember anything." A former sheriff's detective who reviewed the messages said the family ran their own PR department while an eighteen-year-old girl lay dead. Discussions about keeping things "hush hush" while both parents acknowledged in court documents that their son is a suspect in an FBI homicide investigation.Three months after Anna's death was ruled a homicide by mechanical asphyxiation, her sixteen-year-old stepbrother appeared at Miami's James Lawrence King Federal Justice Centre facing multiple federal charges. Anna's father Christopher Kepner told the Daily Mail he was "unable to confirm or deny" that the charges include murder and rape — a statement that directly contradicts preliminary November findings from ABC News indicating no signs of sexual assault.Disturbing allegations have emerged: Anna's ex-boyfriend's father stated she was scared of her stepbrother and that he was obsessed with her. Court documents reference prior physical incidents in the household and skipped medication on the cruise. Subpoenas have targeted Temple Christian School and Florida DCF. Anna's family has publicly accused the suspect's father of interfering with the investigation. Her grandmother announced the surrender on Facebook. Her uncle posted about watching a suspect walk free for months.Prosecutors reportedly intend to seek adult charges. If the transfer is granted, the sealed records open and the public finally learns what the FBI built in silence.#AnnaKepner #CarnivalHorizon #TrueCrimeToday #CruiseShipMurder #FBI #FederalCharges #JusticeForAnna #CustodyBattle #HomicideInvestigation #CarnivalCruiseJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

In March of 2015, Denise Huskins was kidnapped, drugged, sexually assaulted, and held for 48 hours. When she was released, police called it a hoax and demanded that she apologize for wasting resources. The media dubbed it the "Gone Girl" case and death threats started flooding in. Except it wasn't a hoax at all. It was a Harvard-educated serial rapist named Matthew Muller who'd been terrorizing California for years. In this episode, we'll go through the kidnapping, the police misconduct that revictimized the survivors, Detective Misty Carausu's brilliant investigative work that finally caught Muller, and how Denise and Aaron turned trauma into national advocacy. From victims to suspects to survivors...their story changed how law enforcement handles sexual assault cases across America.For Survivors of Sexual Violence:- RAINN National Sexual Assault Hotline: 1-800-656-HOPE (4673)- RAINN Online Chat:https://hotline.rainn.org/online- Crisis Text Line: Text HOME to 741741- National Sexual Violence Resource Center:https://www.nsvrc.org/For Victims of Police Misconduct:- ACLU:https://www.aclu.org/- National Police Accountability Project:https://www.nlg-npap.org/- Innocence Project:https://innocenceproject.org/Mental Health Support:- National Suicide Prevention Lifeline: 988- SAMHSA National Helpline: 1-800-662-4357- Psychology Today Therapist Finder:https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/therapistsSources:San Francisco Chronicle (Henry K.

Thirteen days into a missing persons case that has captivated national media, the story isn't the search anymore—it's the searchers. Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos has turned a crisis investigation into a reputational implosion, and former ABC News correspondent Clayton Sandell walks me through exactly how it happened.Guest: Clayton Sandell covered high-profile missing persons and mass casualty events for ABC News, including the Aurora theater shooting and numerous FBI-led investigations. He knows what institutional competence looks like during a crisis—and what we're watching in Arizona isn't it.In this episode:The press conference mistake that telegraphed weakness to every reporter in the roomWhy showing up at a basketball game wasn't a harmless decompression—it was a strategic failure that signaled misplaced prioritiesHow the sheriff's defensive one-on-one interviews with outlets like People Magazine actively undermined the investigation's credibilityThe moment the FBI stopped coordinating and started competing with local law enforcement over evidenceWhy armchair internet detectives are producing better investigative questions than official press releasesWhat you'll understand after listening: How to spot when crisis response shifts from serving the mission to protecting the messenger. Why defensive quotes ("I had to decompress") reveal someone who's lost control of their narrative. The difference between information vacuums that build suspense versus those that breed conspiracy theories and erode institutional trust.This isn't celebrity gossip. It's a case study in how law enforcement creates secondary crises by prioritizing self-protection over transparency.Want More Behind the Breakdown?

Wednesday morning there were flight restrictions placed over El Paso, Tx set for ten days. After a few hours the restrictions were lifted. Clara McMichael, ABC News transportation reporter, explains why the FAA closed the airspace.

When Anna Kepner's sixteen-year-old stepbrother walked into a federal courthouse in Miami facing multiple charges stemming from her death aboard the Carnival Horizon cruise ship, the most telling detail came from Anna's own father. Christopher Kepner told the Daily Mail he was "unable to confirm or deny" that his stepson faces murder and rape charges. That carefully worded non-denial contradicts preliminary findings from ABC News in November indicating no signs of sexual assault — and raises the question of what the FBI uncovered during ninety days of total silence.Anna's death was ruled a homicide by mechanical asphyxiation — a bar hold across the neck that left two bruises on her throat. Her body was found hidden under a bed in the cruise ship cabin, wrapped in a blanket, covered with life vests, her fourteen-year-old brother sleeping feet away. Surveillance and key card data reportedly show the stepbrother was the only person to enter and exit the cabin during the critical window. Everything the public learned about this case came from a custody battle — text messages showing damage control, memory loss claims, obsession allegations, and testimony about chokeholds in the home. Anna's grandmother publicly accused the suspect's father of interfering with the investigation. The hearing was sealed, but prosecutors reportedly intend to seek transfer to adult court.#AnnaKepner #CarnivalHorizon #CruiseShipDeath #TrueCrime #HiddenKillers #ChristopherKepner #JusticeForAnna #CarnivalCruise #FBIInvestigation #TrueCrimePodcastJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

What if the fastest way to win your market isn't competing harder, but changing the category entirely? This week, I sit down with Kevin Maney, co-author of Play Bigger and founding partner of Category Design Advisors, for a deep dive into what it really takes to create and win a market category. Kevin shares the thinking behind his latest book, The Category Creation Formula, and explains why most businesses unknowingly trap themselves competing inside categories they can never truly lead. We explore how shifts in technology, buyer behavior, and market context create hidden opportunities, why dominant design ultimately determines who wins, and how CEOs can use category thinking not only to grow their companies but to sharpen their own leadership positioning in a crowded, noisy marketplace. Here are the highlights: -Why category leaders win big: In most markets, one company captures the majority of the value, and competing inside someone else's category often limits growth. -The Category Creation Formula: Learn Kevin's simple framework: Context + What's Missing + Innovation = New Category, and how leaders can use it as a practical playbook for growth. -From innovation to dominant design: Markets eventually choose a “dominant design,” and winning that position is what secures long-term leadership. -Real-world examples that worked: How category design helped both large organizations and emerging companies reposition themselves and accelerate growth. -What this means for CEOs and personal leadership brands: How leaders can differentiate themselves, stand out in crowded spaces, and build credibility by shaping the narrative around what they represent. About the guest:  Kevin Maney is a veteran business journalist, bestselling author, and founding partner of Category Design Advisors, where he helps leadership teams discover, design, and win new market categories. He is the co-author of Play Bigger, which introduced the concept of category design and has become a foundational framework for technology founders, executives, and investors. Kevin is also the author of The Category Creation Formula, a practical playbook for building and leading new market categories. Kevin has written for leading publications including Newsweek, Fortune, The Atlantic, Fast Company, CNN, ABC News, and USA Today. Through his work as a writer, advisor, and speaker, he brings clarity to complex market dynamics and helps CEOs position their companies to become category leaders rather than competitors in crowded markets. His newest book, The Category Creation Formula will be released on February 26, 2026.
