Robert Ovadia: Bizarre details emerge about the photos at the centre of Channel Seven star's sacking


Sacked Channel 7 journalist Robert Ovadia allegedly sent a series of strange doctored images to a young female reporter before he was dumped by the network.

'They showed [the young woman] in a slinky cocktail dress holding a champagne flute in cartoon and him in a cape with a sword and shield like he was some kind of knight (in) shining armour.' Anthony De Ceglie, who recently became Channel Seven's director of news, told staff he has a 'zero tolerance' approach to bad behaviour in the newsroom amid the fallout from the Bruce Lehrmann Spotlight scandal. Rival network Channel Nine has also been battling a scandal after The Australian revealed former news boss Darren Wick left the station following a complaint by a female employee.
