I note with extreme interest, the ABC has spent millions settling cases in the past few years with white men that they clearly have not wanted to enter into an open court battle with. The ABC however, is happy to aggressively witch-hunt a Lebanese woman to the ends of the earth. Why?

The amazing thing about Peter Dutton's claim here is that while he make it sound like a difficult task, this would actually be a slower roll-out than what was likely achieved in Australia 2024. A quick thread with numbers:
