Caro wins media award
Says it all really about the standards of modern journalism . This is slap on the back to all who peddle in heresay, innuendo, gossip and rumour.
And to think people at the Age scratch their heads as Fairfax goes down the gurgler.......

The rest of Australia can wander mask-free, socialise, eat out, no curfews, no zoning, no police rings of steel, no illogical inconsistent rules.

when Hell freezes over...seems to be getting closer ? with incredible things happening like Wilson getting an award...
Global Warming? don't you dare question this or you'll be called a heretic...remember the Catholic Church in the Middle Ages? "the earth is flat !!!"
I thought science was all about finding the truth and asking questions...why do we all have to believe what we are told ffs ????

I agree with you.B W and R all over wrote:For breaking the news about the Gold Coast and West Sydney teams.
Say what you like about her but it was a good story and she was working on it for months.
Thoroughly deserved if you ask me.
I like her stuff, at least she doesn't pull her punches unlike the rest of the footy mafia/boys club where it all reporting by mates.
Innocent until proven guilty!

I, for one like Caro as a journalist.
When she's surrounded by all that macho cowdung, and thumping of chests, she actually has an opinion that might talk about the "rights and the wrongs" of the game from both the big picture and the small picture.
Look at Hutchy-the proponent of gutter journalism. Nothing he has in an "expose" interests me as it's usually a beat up.
People tend to forget she grew up in the VFL/AFL circles because of her dad, an ex-Richmond pres, so she's had as good a grounding as you or I.

I reckon she's very good on what happens in the board rooms but fails when it comes to actually discussing football.
Win it for HIM!
