Pay up Angry!
Is it just me or does everyone think Tania Zaetta is entiled to somes sort of compensation for the events of the past three weeks?
I am usually completely opposed to pay outs of any kind…but something that happened yesterday made me change my mind.
In a meeting for Mix fm’s Give Me Five For Kids, Tania Zaetta’s name came up because of something she generously donated to the cause, immediately the laughs and snickers started. And this is a group of people who know and like Tania….people who know she didn’t do anything!
Defence head Air Chief Marshal Angus Houston has admitted the military completely mismanaged the affair - after a so-called "Hot Issues Brief" containing the (completely unsubstantiated) claims from Angry Anderson was distributed to 96 people. It was recalled four minutes later and the names removed…but it was too late.
I don’t blame the military for the ‘Hot issues brief’ – it’s the modern world that they have to manage potential risk.
Angry Anderson still denies he made the claims, but the army is adamant he triggered "Zaettagate", when he told Lt-Col Greg McCauley that he knew Tania had sex with troops and that there were "photographs to prove it".
Anyway – I’d hate this to go to court – it would be tacky and undignified. I think everyone involved should do the right thing and make fair reparation to Tania.

It's a scary thing - the fine line between gossip and headlines. It's only the subject's level of fame that makes a difference...
