Ha ha ha. Some hapless Channel 7 sports reporter had to do a live cross on tonight's news, to "reveal" that "a Hawthorn football player" will "tomorrow reveal" that he suffers from depression. The reporter then went on to describe depression, and its symptoms using sports terminology: it was to be "tackled"; Beyondblue promotes "anti-depression and other tactics"; one in six men, "some of these possibly sportsmen", may suffer from depression... oh man, classic train-wreck live TV. Meanwhile, now that I think about it, why do we need a live cross (from some random Southgate locale) to give us advanced warning about a mildly significant event, that will happen tomorrow? Reminds me of Channel 10's dodgy live feeds from various locations within a five minute radius of their South Yarra HQ...
