Irreverent Newscasters


Watching the news is a trip -- Aussies can get away with a lot as newscasters. Like this am on the national morning news, a reporter was making a face like he was in pain while listening to traditional Chinese opera singing! Another newscaster was commenting on Li Na, the tennis player finalist in the Australian Open, and noted how "good of a personality she has for being a Chinese athlete."

Earlier this week I also saw the hosts break the news that Oprah has a half sister -- the reporter looked at this picture and said "Yup, half sister looks about right" which I took to be a crack at Oprah's size!!!!!!!! How dare he insult Queen Qantas - Our Lady of American Tourists?
