Lee Lin Chin: ‘CommsCon is like the Logies with less famous and certainly less beautiful people’

After we wrote about her back in September SBS newsreader Lee Lin Chin tweeted that she didn’t know what a ‘Mumbrella’ was.

Well confusion might have still reigned a little at Wednesday’s CommsCon awards (something about mushroom shaped umbrellas) but Dr Mumbo is pleased to report Lee is getting her head around what his colleagues do for a living.

SBS’s in-house “comedy genius” last night explained to a packed room of 350 PR professionals that it was “an online newspaper for media people who like to read about themselves”.

Dr Mumbo wouldn’t necessarily disagree with her description.

Lee’s many fans can watch her full opening address below where she takes on Mumbrella, CommsCon and the public relations industry’s “night of nights”.

She also noted that she is available, very available, as an MC for events:
