Mediaa tell me where you get your information that Naomi Robson is the producer of Today Tonight? Neil Mooney is always quoted as the National Producer of the show.

Apart from that, I still question the need for it to be on her wikipedia page. If there was a complaint about 7News having "abysmal reporting standards" (as you so objectively put in) would we go about putting it on all 7News reporters/presenters/producers wiki pages?

Although I definately think a mention could be made about her upcoming appearance at the court case, thus I left in this time, of course with the 'after' part unbolded as it doesn't fit in with the required neutral tone sought after here at wikipedia.

Okay I should have said "presenter" for the east coast but let's not get pedantic. The article on Robson speaks in glowing terms - there is clearly another side. She has decided to be involved in a program that attracts over one third of all ABA judgements against a television station. In the television trade it is known as the trashiest programme in Australia and Robson is not admired or even liked - you don't have to look far to find evidence supporting this statement. Check out: http://forum.australian-media.com.au/index.php?showtopic=533

Her court case is a classic case in point the Magistrate sent a notice to Today Tonight in Melbourne warning them not to cover the story. Robson would have seen that letter but went ahead with the story anyway.

I am surprised to hear that 7News reporter and presenters have enough sbstance to appear on Wikipedia - I thought there were minimum standards for individuals to be listed here. Clearly most of them, including Robson, do not meet them.

Personally I hope she lands up in the clanger - it's about time someone brought her to heel.

[edit] is this her real blog?

I have recently been reading this blog: http://ivegotkarmatoburn.blogspot.com/

which has Naomi's photo as the owner of the blog - any insight as to whether it is really her writing?

Thanks

I did a Google Image Search for Naomi Robson. The first result was a larger, uncropped version of the picture used in the blog. Given that, I'd say this person just did as I did and picked that picture for their profile. DynaBlast 16:19, 27 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Court Case

I removed the information about the court case. My reasoning behind this was that it was simply a copy of Media Watch's transcript (http://www.abc.net.au/mediawatch/transcripts/s1473150.htm) and added POV to the article. None of the other articles on journalists named in the court case had this mentioned on their WP articles, so it appears someone tried to find whatever material possible to try and make Naomi look bad. This is supported by the ridiculous link encouraging people to look up Naomi Robson in the Magistrate's Court list (which yields no results).

If someone wants to add in this information once more in a tasteful way, here's a source to get you started: [1] To my knowledge, the court case concluded with the people involved having to give an apology. DynaBlast 23:03, 4 April 2006 (UTC)

No, she makes it up as she goes along.--143.92.1.33 06:18, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

Does this woman need an article dedicated to her?

She is a former host of a tabloid current affairs program.

Can't this be deleted?
