Respect to the investigations team for running this.

It feels like no one dislikes the ABC as a company as much as its employees.

Which honestly makes a lot of sense now that I think about it. I hate my employer too.

No one makes deprecating jokes about the ABC as much as its employees, either.

Oh the staff know what their overlords are like. The MD hired the ex HR Head of paragon of employment rights 7-11 who proceeded to stretch "negotiations" out for years by being a prick. All while the MD pretends that it's not him.

Wait, ABC is reporting on ABC? Damn.

Media Watch is worthwhile viewing, regularly critical of the ABC

To me thats a fair endorsement that they are being impartial news reporters, though i think they lean left of center they also dont try sweep shit under the rug when it doesnt suit them

Time for a full scale house cleaning at the ABC. They need to clean out the rot Morrison and co started.

"Say fart" is going to fight Lattouf? Pffffffffff

Sound strategy. I know when I want someone to represent me in a fairwork lawsuit I go straight to a company that operates in a country that has no ideological framework whatsoever to understand how things work within our laws.
