Dizzy Gillespie slams new TA campaign; Rose Byrne ‘doesn’t realise what really goes on at night’
In one of the more interesting media and marketing timelines we will see this week, Australian cricket legend, Jason ‘Dizzy’ Gillespie has hit out at Tourism Australia for “cashing in on our national icon”, the kangaroo in its new campaign.
Dr Mumbo was as surprised as most to hear that Dizzy is a key Kangaroos Alive ambassador, the group that is claiming TA is turning a blind eye to the animal’s local demise, while unfairly leveraging the marsupials at the same time.
“I’m guessing actress Rose Byrne, who is the voice of Ruby, doesn’t realise what really goes on at night,” said Dizzy in what appears as quite a dark quote.
