    INTERVIEW – SHARNELLE VELLA; Ch 7 State Political Reporter

    Her path to her role now

    Told some great stories about jobs she had while putting in the hours to chase her dream

    One job was to carry a journalists handbag while the journalist did interviews!

    Her parents still watch every night – and they time it!

    She gave us an exclusive – told us the story about when Mal Brown sprayed her! She was rapt to get the lead story!

    She was involved with the stake outs at James Hird’s house – they were there so often that they knew the neighbours’ movements

    There was a day when she got a good 3 minute chat out of Hird … One of the only times he spoke properly… And the cameraman didn’t hit record!

    They were at Hird’s house so often than a cameraman used to water his front lawn

    It was respectful between Hird and the reporters – Hird understood it but it was uncomfortable for everyone

    She has snuck victims out of courts to avoid media before

    We don’t have an opposition government in this town! They are just not unified – that’s the crux of the problem. There’s one team out on the field playing the game, the opposition is still in the rooms planning

    Why she loves politics and reporting on it

    On Dan Andrews – could get up in front of crowds and present without flinching, he’s an incredible political figure, he was ruthless and cut throat

    The way the state has been left, in some ways, is shameful
