In a surprising turn of events, Australian newsreader Natasha Exelby has been let go by ABC24 after a lighthearted yet embarrassing moment on live television. During a pre-recorded segment, Exelby was caught daydreaming and playing with a pen, only realizing she was back on air when the camera returned to her. Despite her quick recovery to continue with the broadcast, ABC24 deemed the incident serious enough to terminate her contract.
This decision has sparked outrage among fellow journalists and viewers, who argue that Exelby is a talented and professional presenter. Many believe the station has overreacted, pointing to their own on-air mistakes that didn’t lead to dismissal. In response to the backlash, a petition has been created to advocate for her reinstatement.
Exelby, who has recently returned to Australia after reporting on significant global events, has acknowledged her mistake while emphasizing her desire to bring some joy into viewers’ lives amidst tough news. Join us as we explore this unfolding story of comedy, professional standards, and public support for a beloved news anchor.
