Rebecca Maddern, journalist and TV presenter of “Channel 7“, announced herself almost two weeks after the controversial comments about Novak Djokovic that went viral.
It should be recalled that on the eve of the beginning of the program, in a conversation with a colleague of the Serbian tennis player, she called it “lying, vile ***,” and now she pointed out that she was angry that her statement was recorded and published outside of the program.
I am not sorry that I expressed my opinion in the given situation. I am only sorry for the speech I used, said Rebecca.
Maddern also revealed that she was having dinner with her husband in a restaurant when the video leaked to the public and went viral.
My first reaction was that I was very angry because a private conversation was recorded and published. Then, to make matters worse, the recording was released without my knowledge and consent. Luckily, the bosses supported me from the beginning. I am satisfied with the outcome and I hope that a similar quarrel will never happen again to anyone, “concluded Rebecca Maddern.
