David Sharaz

David Sharaz is a former journalist who has recently become newsworthy due to two significant developments. First, he was hired by GetUp, a progressive political campaigning organization, for a senior role. In this position, he will focus on combating far-right groups and pushing for policy wins leading up to the 2028 election. Second, Sharaz was declared bankrupt in federal court after being ordered to pay Linda Reynolds $92,000 for defamatory social media posts. This bankruptcy occurred just days after his wife, Brittany Higgins, was also declared bankrupt in a related case. His current relevance stems from his new role in a prominent progressive organization and the financial repercussions of the defamation lawsuit, highlighting the intersection of media, politics, and legal accountability.
