Angela Athena Pippos (born 29 December 1969[citation needed]), is an Australian journalist, television/radio presenter, author, MC and public speaker, of Greek heritage.
[citation needed] After three years, she was lured across to ABC television news in Melbourne in 1997, even though the sports reporting position did not fit in with her plans of becoming a political journalist.
[citation needed] Within a few months she was presenting the sports segment at the ABC News Victoria desk on weekends and then was promoted to weeknights alongside Ian Henderson.
She has also been a guest presenter on ABC Radio Melbourne, as well as a columnist and feature writer for the AFL Website and the Sunday Age.
[2] Pippos was asked by the Australian Labor Party to stand for the Victorian seat of Williamstown, vacated by former Premier Steve Bracks in 2007, but she turned it down.
