Sweet irony, now she has the audacity to be critical of 60mins running a news story to just cause controversy!
ONE of the most irresponsible pieces of journalism ever to have aired on the 60 Minutes program has left two men shattered, two families devastated and both unnecessarily defending themselves in the light of a dreadful human tragedy.

That any of us has been asked to take sides in this is plainly wrong and immoral. When sensationalism gets in the way of the truth, the damage to all sides is enormous and public opinion falls victim to a lack of facts.
Where was the veteran Liz Hayes, the reporter on the story, when the producers handed her a script that unravelled McKinnon and subsequently Smith?
60 Minutes got it very, very badly wrong. In trying to play the blame game, the program’s producers chose to ignore facts that could have been cleared up with a phone call.
