Australia's public broadcaster, the ABC, has spent over $1 million defending a legal case involving the dismissal of a casual radio host. The host alleges she was unlawfully taken off air after sharing a controversial post on social media. The ABC has tried to settle the case but has already spent $1.1 million on external lawyers. The broadcaster's handling of the situation has been criticized, but the ABC maintains that it will wait to see how the court case unfolds.
