“Insane” Reporter Resigns Over Pink

Text

A journalist asked Pink why she fired her sister, which ended with Pink calling her insane.

An Australian correspondent for the New Zealand television TVNZ, Hannah Hodson, resigned after she created an incident in which Pink gave her problems.

Journalist Hannah Hodson’s sister was an assistant to the star at one time, and Hannah started asking why Pink fired her sister, reports news.com.au.

“She's f-----g insane” said Pink for Stuff.co.nz.

Argument over sister

Reuters-.--.-PinkPink says that she was trying to be polite, but after Hodson showed her madness, she gave up on the interview, and the management of TVNZ says that she tried to take the tape.

“She lost her marbles somewhere between there and here ... Her sister used to work for me. Her sister no longer works for me” says Pink.

On the other hand, a TVNZ spokesperson denied that the argument occurred in regards to the journalist’s sister.

“Her sister was mentioned in cordial terms. There was no challenge made about her employment” said the spokesperson.

Betrayed whistleblower, insulted Nicole Kidman

Last year Hodson got into bad relations with Nicole Kidman at the Australian premiere of “The Golden Compass”.

“What about some of the reviews, I mean, one person called it an embarrassing, colossal piece of cr-p. How do you take that kind of criticism?” Hodson asked Kidman.

“That's a charming thing. I didn't know that. You're a sweet woman, aren't you” answered Nicole Kidman.

In 2004 Hodson was fired for New Zealand’s TV3 for revealing the identity of a whistleblower in the case of the missing model Iraena Asher.
