Inside Lisa Wilkson vs Network 10

Court in the Act - A podcast by The West Australian

It’s a spin-off from the original drama Brittany Higgins versus Bruce Lehrmann. Veteran TV presenter Lisa Wilkinson took on her former employer Network 10 over her decision to get her own lawyers. And over what those lawyers cost. It all stems from the interview Wilkinson conducted with Higgins on The Project in 2021, where Lehrmann was accused of rape. And that Logies speech, which forced the delay of the criminal trial of Lehrmann. There was more explosive testimony from Wilkinson, revealing the inner workings of the TV station, in a bid to make her former employers pay. Jenna Clarke, associate editor of The Australian joins host Tim Clarke to discuss the latest spin-off in the case that has consumed Canberra and Australia’s media.
