‘One thing you won’t get in COVID press conferences is truth’: Alan Jones

One thing you won’t get in all of the COVID-19 press conferences “is truth,” according to Sky News host Alan Jones.

“I inflicted the ultimate pain upon myself by watching an absurd press conference on Friday by Gladys Berejiklian,” Mr Jones said.

“I hope you don’t submit yourself to such punishment every day. The recurring theme was stay at home, uttered a million times.

“You saw them all on stage, Hazzard, the sign language interpreter, Chant, Worboys, and then a retinue of assembled media. Why weren’t they staying at home?”

Mr Jones noted that Dr Kerry Chant “had something in her eye” and the Health Minister Brad Hazzard gave her a tissue for it.

“His hands are all over it … and she puts it all over her face and puts it in her eye,” he said.

“All of which we are being told not to do.”
