Sacked ABC star Antoinette Lattouf opens up to Abbie Chatfield about being abruptly dumped from the national broadcaster
Sacked ABC journalist and radio presenter Antoinette Lattouf has opened up about her abrupt dismissal to podcast host Abbie Chatfield.
Ms Lattouf, a fill-in breakfast presenter at the national broadcaster, lodged an unfair dismissal claim against her former employer alleging she was dropped over her political views and race.
