Robert Ovadia: TV reporter makes his next move after he was sacked by Channel Seven


Sacked Channel Seven journalist Robert Ovadia has formally launched legal proceedings against his former employer.

It has since been revealed that Ovadia lodged legal action against Channel Seven and the network's news boss Anthony De Ceglie in the Fair Work Commission a week ago. '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.
