The Spin
Narrative A
ABC let its staff and audiences down in how it handled this case. The organization did not follow its processes for handling such a situation and, consequently, mistakes were made. ABC apologizes to Lattouf and wishes her the best going forward.
Narrative B
Lattouf's case is not only a victory for her but also for journalists across Australia and the world who have been silenced by large corporations. Impartial truth-seeking and journalistic integrity at work does not mean personal opinions should be muzzled.
