Neary Ty is an award-winning journalist at the Nine Network and the proud daughter of Cambodian refugees who survived the Khmer Rouge regime. Born and raised in Australia, Neary's journey is one of resilience and determination. She built her career from the ground up earning a Bachelor of Media and Communication (Journalism), securing an internship at Nine News Melbourne, and working her way through roles as a News Librarian, Assistant to the Chief of Staff, and Producer, contributing to both local and national news bulletins.
In 2014, Neary became Nine News Melbourne's first Cambodian reporter, breaking numerous crime stories, counter-terror raids, and exclusives. She has covered major events such as bushfires, devastating floods, the Bourke Street tragedy, Harry and Meghan's royal tour, and was at the forefront of lockdown protests. Her investigative work has earned multiple award nominations, and she has been highly commended by the Melbourne Press Club for her reporting on Victoria's youth justice system.
She's had the awful task of covering some of the state's most high profile murder cases and gangland hits. From the Wyndham Vale Lake tragedy, to the death of baby Sanaya behind Northland Shopping Centre. The disappearance of Bung Siriboon and the murders of Courtney Herron, Aiia Maasarwe, and Dr Ashley Gordon. In 2024, Neary received the Crimestoppers Mersina Halvagis Award for her outstanding contribution to crime prevention, recognising her sensitivity towards victims and grieving families, as well as her work on Crimestoppers campaigns. In 2022, she was inducted into the Mentone Girls' Grammar Remarkable Women Hall of Fame, honouring her excellence in media and journalism.
For Neary, the most rewarding part of journalism is meeting wonderful people on the job. While she sees the worst part of humanity, she also sees the best. She is deeply moved by the courage of victims and grieving families who share their experiences, hoping to spark change or highlight injustice.
Beyond her career, Neary cherishes time with her family and three young children. She is passionate about changing the narrative for the next generation, ensuring her children embrace their cultural heritage, diversity, and traditions from around the world.
