She later worked for The Australian and spent several years in the United Kingdom as London correspondent for Rupert Murdoch’s Australian newspapers. ABC executives were so impressed with Doogue’s on-air presence during an interview with the Four Corners program, that she was offered a hosting role on Nationwide.

Doogue was the host of Radio National’s Life Matters program for 11 years from its inception in 1992. She received a United Nations Media Peace Prize and two Penguin Awards for her role in ABC TV’s coverage of the Gulf War. She was the host of Compass on ABC TV from 1998 to 2017.
