Antoinette Lattouf has revealed she suffered from paranoia and sleeplessness in the year since she was removed from her presenting role at the ABC, telling the federal court she had been subjected to threats, continually lied about, defamed and derided.
Lattouf gave evidence under cross examination on Tuesday, as part of the unfair dismissal case she has brought against the ABC, telling the court that she had seen a psychiatrist in 2024 about the emotional toll that she had suffered since the events at the ABC in December 2023.
