Antoinette Lattouf on her ABC battle and the cost of winning

In 2023, Antionette Lattouf was sacked by the ABC after sharing a Human Rights Watch post about Gaza. 

What followed became one of the most closely watched employment cases in the country, raising questions about political pressure, media independence and whose voices are allowed to be heard. 

Now, after winning her case, Lattouf has written a book about her fight, and the women who’ve taken on powerful institutions and won.

She’s also become part of a new independent media movement, as audiences look beyond legacy institutions for voices they feel they can trust. 

Today, Antoinette Lattouf discusses the cost of challenging the system, and what comes after winning.
