MasterChef’s Tourism WA campaign terminated

On the eve of the MasterChef Grand Finale tonight, Tourism WA has announced that it has terminated its advertising contract with George Calombaris in the wake of the celebrity chef’s current controversy surrounding the massive underpayment of his restaurant employees.

Calombaris has been featuring in Tourism WA’s “Create Your Own Gourmet Escape in WA” campaign.

WA Tourism Minister Paul Papalia said it was a very disappointing development.
