TV Host in Hot Water Over Sexist Comments About Victoria Cross Winner

I'm surprised Fairfax even ran with this tbh. But the apology over Facebook when a TV station caused the problem is just staggeringly inappropriate. I doubt that Yumi thinks she did anything wrong; wrenching remorse out of her would be a futile exercise.

The bad news is that the backlash is over his being a war hero, the good news is that even the mainstream SMH referred to her comments as sexist.

The apology rings false. She still doesn't get why people are pissed at her.

TIL that you can't be buff and smart all at once...

how could you be that buff and spend that much time in a gym and be smart as well?

He's pretty highly decorated, from the VC, the Medal of Gallantry and a number of campaign ribbons... I take my hat off to the man. They had a good piece on him in 60 minutes the other night.
