The Australian Financial Review in 1994, and featured for several years on the Coodabeen Champions, on ABC Radio, as well as on Life Matters.[3]
He was an editorial advisor for Australia Council for a three-year term. Penguin publishing director Bob Sessions praised his appointment: "I think it's terrific," he said. "Fresh blood with a good knowledge of the industry."[5] However, former Australia Council Chair, Hilary McPhee, criticised it as right-wing political bias.[5] Salusinszky served as media adviser for former Premier of New South Wales, Mike Baird, from 2013 and 2017.
In 2019 Salusinsky published, The Hilton Bombing: Evan Pederick and the Ananda Marga, which denied the existence of evidence of a conspiracy and provided evidence that Pederick was responsible for the
Sydney Hilton Bombing.[6] It was shortlisted for the 2020 Nib Literary Award.[7] In 2023, he was a visiting scholar at the ELTE School of English and American Studies.[8]
