Hats off to SBS2’s The Feed for orchestrating this stunningly well-executed and gleefully self-aware piece of documentary filmmaking [verification required].
Shout out too to each of the Broadcast Battleground’s participants – from Annabel Crabb for her teeth gnashing cannibalism to Sandra Sully’s deadpan commitment, there’s 10/10 sportsmanship from all involved- and, of course, to the legendary, chic and deadly Lee Lin Chin.
As grand adjudicator David Marr so rightly puts it: “She’s the newsreader Australia deserves, but not the one it needs right now… Because she can take it. Because she’s not [just] a newsreader.
She’s Lee Lin motherflippin’ Chin.”
