Ray brings silence to the house
Friday night saw the who’s who of NSW journalism turn out at Randwick Racecourse for annual Kennedy Awards.
However it does appear that journalist Ray Martin, who was helping MC the event, appears not to have learned his lesson about providing public commentary about the ABC and “lefty lynch mobs” while he is in the midst of conducting a review of Q&A, on behalf of the public broadcaster.
Ray did a shoutout asking the room if there was anyone here from the ABC which was met with tepid applause. Undeterred his subsequent calls for anyone who worked at Q&A, and then host Tony Jones, were met with a very awkward silence.
Dr Mumbo wonders if perhaps ABC staff were worried he’d do the Q&A review interviews right there on stage as the next part of the comedy routine?
