"ABC managing director David Anderson said the cabinet minister offered to settle the action both before and after the broadcaster presented its defence.
Mr Anderson said there was a difference between the two settlement offers but refused to detail the change."I don't want to sabotage any possible mediation in the future by revealing what was in these without-prejudice offers that came before us," he told a Senate estimates hearing in Canberra on Monday."
So Porter offered to settle before the ABC presented their defence. Then he heard their defence and offered a different settlement and when that wasn't accepted either, he offered mediation.
And then comes out with a press conference stating the ABC were humiliated - ROFL
What planet is this plonker from?
Seems Anderson is suggesting there may be further possible mediation required? Perhaps after Round 2?
