Introducing articles with tricky titles

Recently my class was given an opinion piece titled: "Jeff Kennett on the euthanasia debate: ending 'bad' deaths and suicide". Annotating the article was fine, but I went ahead and thought about how to start my conclusion. A dilemma came up.

Jeff Kennett was obviously the author of the article. But how do I state both the author and the exact name of the piece without repetition?

This won't work:
Jeff Kennett's "Jeff Kennet on the...."

Perhaps this?

Jeff Kennett's "[Views] on the euthanasia debate....."
(I'm afraid of changing the exact title.)

In "Jeff Kennett on the....", the author, Jeff Kennet, former Victorian Premier.....


I'm not really sure. Any ideas?





PS: I'm rather new to the forums. When I was typing this up, there was this white rectangle floating everywhere. Can someone tell me what it's for and/or how to disable it?

Maybe you could write something like "In the article Jeff Kennett on the euthanasia debate..., Kennett explores..." and omit his first name. I'm assuming it's a formal piece of writing so it would be appropriate to only state either his first or last name when mentioning him after the title.
