    As reported, her previous employer is now taking Brittany to court for alleged defamation. The problem for Brittany is that she again has to pay for her own defence

    It's a second defamation case that really should not have been brought on, if Brittany had just kept classy, kept quiet, and just gone to the police, and not invited the media into the room, which broke the case WIDE OPEN, and open the gates to the hungry legal profession

    Use lawyers like you would use nuclear bomb, only as a very last resort to save your life. You will experience radiation fallout, if you bring on a big case and lose

    Why to keep quiet instead of milking it as much as you can? Involving media was a good decision, Regardless of court's findings of course.

    Yes. So that would have been your advice to her as well. Get media involved

    Lets get back to your recommendation, after Brittany's final legal bill total is revealed. As stated she has to face another court case and has to defend herself

    Mate, you missed the irony in my message!

    On another note here is a breakdown of the pay:

    According to the claim, the “hurt, distress and humiliation” Ms Higgins experience was valued at $400,000; past and future domestic assistance cost $100,000; and medical expenses cost $220,000. A further $245,000 was paid for legal fees, and $1.48m for lost wages.

    Senator Reynolds has also referred the payment to the National Anti-Corruption Commission.

    It would be really ironic if Brittany ends up suing her BF for encouraging her to go to the media and thereby causing her to lose her chance at getting justice, not to mention her potential legal and financial troubles down the road.

    Oh sorry. Thought your opinion was that Brittany involve the meddlesome Lisa "Channel 10 can pay my legal bills" Wilkinson.

    It goes like this

    1. Invite the media into your life
    2. By definition you sell your soul to the 24 hour news cycle
    3. Lose all privacy and control of the narrative
    4. Be photographed every month at your worst face and body angles, and be stalked around the world
    5. You cannot switch the media attention off
    6. People will permanently associate you with a lounge in Parliament House in your old bosses office. You never ever live it down

    And news about referral to National anti-corruption commission? It's warranted. Sounds like a 'hush money' arrangement

    Maybe it was politically motivated as this article seems to suggest

    Can’t stand Lisa Wilkinson. Her face looks like made of plastic, complete with fake pearly whites.

    I don't think there was one single decent honest ethical person in this whole sad sorry saga.
    How any of them can sue for defamation is a fucken joke.
    And defaming a politician has to be the ultimate oxymoron.
