An exit in disgrace.

No big loss. Never rated him as a reporter (although he suited the ACA stereotype perfectly)

Just another nepo baby handed a job at Nine.

My god that was an emotional watch tonight with Professor Scolyer. Tears from him and Ally. Sheā€™s so bloody good and brings out the emotion in people so well.

ā€˜I was under huge pressureā€™: Seb Costello on toilet chase and leaving Nine

Former Nine reporter Seb Costello has publicly addressed his controversial exit from the network in an awkward interview with former footballer Sam Newman.

Talking to Sam Newman on the football personalityā€™s You Cannot Be Serious podcast, Costello said heā€™d ā€œbeen there 13 years and itā€™s time for a change.ā€ After making him declare as much down the barrel of a video camera, Newman pushed him further on the toilet incident.

Notably agitated, Costello called Newman ā€œweirdā€, saying he was not being defensive but was simply ā€œon alert, for when you decide to make me feel uncomfortableā€. When pushed further on the toilet incident, he said ā€œIā€™m not allowed to talk about it, Iā€™m not here to talk about that.ā€
