Jill Singer is a well-known Australian journalist who has no idea what she is talking about, well when it comes to motorsport and is a brainless moron in general who refuses to listen to anyone else's opinion and has an ego as big as Australiia who somehow is still employed by the Herald Sun,also a brainless columnist and television presenter. She began her journalism career as an ABC radio trainee in 1984 although previously to this she worked as a show girl at gentlemen's clubs. She worked her way up to become a senior reporter for The 7.30 Report on the ABC and later presented the Victorian edition of Today Tonight on the Seven Network. She has also presented for The 7.30 Report, The Arts Show, 2-shot and People Dimensions (ABCTV) She was the executive producer of ABCTV's national morning news and current affairs program First Edition. Currently she writes a weekly column for the Melbourne Herald Sun and lectures in television journalism at RMIT University in Melbourne. She makes regular appearances on The Conversation Hour (ABC774) and on SKYTV's Melbourne Report.
In 1992, Singer won the Walkley Award for "Best Investigative Television Journalist."
In 1996, Jill collapsed on-air as she attempted to introduce a story on the then Victorian Premier Jeff Kennett's business dealings. The collapse, a severe migraine attack, prompted a public furore, and the story went to air the following night, unchanged. However, journalists and producers who worked on the story did not have their contracts renewed. The story behind this was uncovered by an ABC Four Corners feature and the Seven Network was accused of bowing to pressure from the State Government to pull the story.
in 1997 Singer was highly commended at the Quill Awards for her Herald Sun column.
In 1999, Singer won the Quill Award for Best Television Current Affairs report for an investigation into ExxonMobil.
In 2010, Singer won the Quill Award for Best Television Current Affairs (less than 15 minutes) for a report on flaws in the criminal justice system's treatment of domestic violence victims.
In 2011, Singer faced an outpouring of anger and disgust from the Motorsport community after writing an inflammatory opinion piece in the Herald Sun condemning Motorsport enthusiasts for "getting off on carnage" and "only watching for the crashes". The reaction to this article was accentuated by the recent death of Marco Simoncelli who was killed during the Malaysian Grand Prix after losing control of his motorcycle.yet she has no idea about motorsport,fans want to watch it for thrilling battles,not people dying,she is a witch
Personal life
She is an active campaigner against motorbiking and motorbike racing in particular who loves pissing off and being a complete idiot who is somehow listened to by people,she is in fact an evil human being
