Sites like this have been copying so much content for years, especially in regional areas. Knowing the hours that go into original journalism, it’s very frustrating, let alone unethical. Great story.

Solidarity with my hard working colleagues who are sent to breaking stories to write and file copy for the website, take and file photos, interview witnesses, file radio stories, do radio crosses, gather information AND do live television… in the same time as everyone else.

On reports re: Bruce #Lehrmann's criminal trial & how Brittany Higgins' subpoenaed texts ended up w/ Ch7 Spotlight, Reece Kershaw says AFP is "reviewing that material and that case as we speak". Says not an investigation yet - just seeing if there's a threshold for one. #auspol

Costs submissions in the Lehrmann defamation case show Bruce Lehrmann was given a "walkaway offer" by Network Ten in August 2023, which was open for him to consider for two weeks. He declined it in less than two hours. #Lehrmann #Defamation #Higgins #FederalCourt

"Mr Lehrmann behaved disgracefully. He defended the criminal charge on a false basis, lied to police, and then allowed that lie to go uncorrected before the jury. " He also allowed Higgins, an assault victim, to be cross-examined on a knowingly false premise." Justice Lee.

"One does not pash passively" - Justice Lee, ruling that Ms Higgins's evidence that she was "passive" on the night at The Dock was inconsistent with his finding that she and Bruce Lehrmann "hooked up."
