Ever since seeing that horrendous Robert Redford movie about TV journalism with Michelle Pfeiffer playing ‘Tally Atwater’ I have been increasingly amused by the names of Australia’s television journalists and anchors.
A list of my favourites include:
Mignon Henne (as in Filet Mignon, juvenile humour I know but it makes me laugh. There was also a highly amusing incident involving her finger getting bitten by a horse during a live broadcast. Classic television.)
Harry Potter (I find it very difficult to take a journalist seriously when I can only imagine him donning an invisible cloak.)
And my very favourite:
Leith Mulligan (Say it out loud. It makes me giggle. I can’t fully explain why.)
Further suggestions very welcome.
