Lawyer John Laxon alleges the media company has linked the recent exit of former Queensland news boss Amanda Paterson to its recent bombshell cultural review.

Nine Entertainment is facing two separate legal challenges from current and former employees as it continues to contend with the fallout of its highly publicised culture review.

“They time the terminations to coincide with the release of a report so as to leave the smear and the inference somehow the termination has something to do with the report when it does not in any way,” Laxon told this masthead – which is owned by Nine.“It just leaves a horrible taint that she’s a victim of the Intersection report, and she’s not.”

Nine is aware of the complaint and has chosen not to comment, a spokesperson told this masthead, and the matter is scheduled for mediation initially. Nine and Walsh’s lawyers were also contacted regarding the separate case; however, they had not responded at the time of publishing.
