Nine newsreader Amber Sherlock blasts colleague Julie Snook over outfit
Nine presenter Amber Sherlock’s social media accounts in lockdown after video was leaked of her off-air spat | WATCH
Amber Sherlock’s social media accounts were in lockdown overnight after footage emerged of the Channel Nine news and weather presenter blasting her colleague over her choice of outfit shortly before going to air yesterday.
Sherlock has since again made her accounts public but is still being widely criticised by what some are describing as ‘Regina George’ behaviour.
The hashtag #PutYourBlazersOnForJulie was trending yesterday as people piled in with support for Julie Snook, who was at the receiving end of Sherlock’s criticism.
Amber Sherlock should give a public apology to @JulieSnook. That was appalling bully behaviour. #notcool @9NewsSyd #putyourblazersonforjulie

Sherlock is an experienced journalist and has been with the Nine Network for ten years, having joined in 2007 to present the business segments for Today, Nine Morning News Hour and Nine Afternoon News.
Surprised by @AmberSherlock, thought she was more respectable than this. Definitely doesn't deserve her job.

The leaked video, obtained by Mumbrella, shows Sherlock telling Snook to put on a jacket after the two of them, and fellow guest on the Chatroom segment, psychologist Sandy Rae, were all wearing white.
“I need Julie to put a jacket on. I asked her before we came on ... I told you two hours ago,” Sherlock demand.
“I’m sorry, I’ve been flat out,” says Snook, “Amber, if it’s an issue, I can get on out of here…”.
“It is an issue..” Sherlock replies. “Go and grab a jacket….”
Snook later appears in a black jacket and the trio are all smiles when the show goes to air.
