Dear National Broadcaster.

The richest woman in Australia has no expertise in war, international or domestic law. She is a private person with no qualifications beyond a high school certificate and an inherited fortune.

What she thinks of Ben Roberts Smith is for her private musings. It is not news and there is no requirement for you to publish her missives on it.

@Ex_spurt As she likes to meddle in politics so much, I think it is in the national interest for her odious opinions to make it into the news.

But it needs to be reported pretty negatively.
