She really didn’t come across well in those emails. I’m surprised she was stupid enough to put that stuff in an email to be honest. My rule is never put anything in a corporate email you wouldn’t be happy for the whole world to read. Although I’ve always found her pretty arrogant to be honest, and probably thinks she’s above the rules. I don’t really support the case against the ABC though, Lattouf is a very bad actor. ---

#### ABC Statement – Federal Court proceedings > The ABC is currently defending proceedings in the Federal Court brought by Ms Antoinette Lattouf. > > As part of the proceedings, a proposition was made in the ABC’s legal submission relating to race and matters that needed to be established by Ms Lattouf in her case against the ABC. This proposition was intended to state the legal elements that must be established, it was not to make a statement about any aspect of Ms Lattouf’s race. > > The ABC recognises that, regrettably, this legal argument has caused distress in some sections of the community and our workforce. This was not the ABC’s intention. > > Today, the ABC made clear to the Court that it does not dispute or contest Ms Lattouf’s race or national extraction being Lebanese, Middle Eastern or Arab. > > The ABC does, however, deny that any action was taken against Ms Lattouf because of her political opinion, race or national extraction. > > The ABC is unable to make further comment while proceedings continue. ---

tbh, I wouldn’t put it past Lattouf’s mates to have done it… after all, why would a leftist leak to a Murdoch rag? 😉 ---
