For new affairs - for old affairs: A Current Affair (2015-Feb 2025)
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. Sheās so bloody good and brings out the emotion in people so well.
āI 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 personalityās You Cannot Be Serious podcast, Costello said heād ābeen there 13 years and itās 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 āweirdā, saying he was not being defensive but was simply āon alert, for when you decide to make me feel uncomfortableā. When pushed further on the toilet incident, he said āIām not allowed to talk about it, Iām not here to talk about that.ā
