‘Lisa’s too white’: even spray tans can’t get Karl and Lisa a Gold Logie nomination
The announcement of well-deserved Gold Logie nominations for Waleed Aly and Lee Lin Chin has had many hailing it as the most diverse line-up ever and “a departure from the all-white nominee list up of recent years”.
And Dr Mumbo has made no secret of his admiration for Lee Lin, with Aly deserving the nod for his performance on the guitar at the Walkley Awards alone.
However, there was no room on the list for Nine breakfast show duo Karl Stefanovic and Lisa Wilkinson, a fact which didn’t go unnoticed in a tongue-in-cheek segment on this morning’s Today show.
Ah, casual racism. Never not funny…..
Too white, right!
Since 1957 – the start of TV in Oz, there’s been pretty much nobody BUT whiteys – Kamahl being one – ONE – exception.
So where’s LIsa’s logo? – is that the question.
Entitled.
So somewhere, there’s a logo that’s hers by rights, and now she’s “too white” and she woz robbed.
yeah. right.
Waleed Aly, not Ali
What a bunch of d…heads on the today show. denyer is not black, essie davis(who??) is not black, cam is not black, bickmore is not black. neither is chin or aly. so what are the carrying on about. Sour grapes??
Never fear white people, although it didn’t make the breakfast tv news, Cam & Denyer were both nominated too. The white, straight, blokey, middle aged male still dominates the Logie nominations, all is right in tv-land.
Why are people so racist that they claim that being white is what wins you a logie.
Why are some television presenters racist?
Why cant some people take a joke instead of claiming racism. Grow up ya idiots
How did Stefanovic win his award when only months earlier his ratings were crap? Was it yet another example of how votes can be rigged by a Channel keen to impress with its claims on the Gold Logie? I like Lisa but Karl makes me ill 90% of the time when he speaks.
Waleed Aly is a lawyer who happens to be of the Islamic faith. That faith does NOT make him evil
Elite racism has reared it’s ugly head
Our media especially in conservative radio is dodgy to the core
Channel 9 has embarrassed itself yet again with sleazy commentary
Waleed is a highly educated man that’s refreshing to any thinking Australian
Time for the media clean up it’s act at last!
@ Anonymous Your mother is a w****. Just joking. Ha ha ha ha.
