Karl Stefanovic and Lisa Wilkinson proved their political prowess with 8.5 hours of LIVE television earlier this month as the “Spillard” unfolded on national morning television. Karl drove to Canberra at 2am to report from Parliament House, whilst Lisa was in studio with a host of guests dissecting all the breaking coverage as it unfolded.
Laurie Oakes, with over 40 years of experience in Canberra, showed yet again as recently as Thursday why he’s the best political journalist in Australia, with his bombshell question to the Prime Minister at her first address to the National Press Club.
