I'm guessing someone who didn't see the actual accidents or near misses that have occured at Sydney in the last twenty years (maybe not even an industry person?). I do recall an incident where an aircraft under tow illegally entered the runway with an aircraft on approach and cleared to land, there was also the Ansett 747 nose wheel collapse, the recent crash in Botany Bay (and many that i have forgotten or have no knowledge of)- a few in other words.

I'm surprised the media didn't report on the missed approach by a Virgin Blue aircraft on Sunday morning - with all the media there i was wondering if that would make the news. Maybe it would have, had it been a Qantas aircraft?
