My state Victoria's education system administration was ridiculed this week when thousands of students received their final-year school results by text 5 days before the planned Dec12 release. My (non-identical) twin daughters were on the news on TV channels 2, 7, 9 and 10. They were deemed newsworthy, because one got her results five days early and her twin sister has to wait for the official release. The TV interest arose after my wife phoned in anonymously to the 3AW Radio Station breakfast topic. Two channels sent camera crews to our house and the other two channels used their footage. It was the only time a TV crew had bothered with our street since my wife and I arrived here in 1993. I was at work and missed it all.
