Good work if you can get it

After a recent listing of the top earners in journalism, Kate keeps telling me I’ve chosen the right profession.

If your job description can include: “earns $600,000 a year and rarely comes into the office”, you wouldn’t be complaining, would you? According to
NEWS.com.au, that’s what Jana Wendt is on at Sunday, and is the reason she might be on the way out.

That said, Jessica Rowe was supposed to go as well – oh the media rumuors we weave.

Nine’s got to do something though – they’re flailing in the water while Seven is starting to look like Grant Hackett at the 1200m mark, pulling away.

Grant Hackett is/was the Australian swim team captain and 1500m world record holder. He was injured and not swimming, so signed by Seven as an exclusive reporter for the Commonwealth Games, which Nine was broadcasting and held the rights to. Hackett was subsequently banned from poolside by Nine, who feared he would get all the interviews with Australian swimmers who had just won every single pool event.
