Jeremy Cordeaux’s on-air comments about Brittany Higgins attracted no complaints to ACMA
Australia’s media regulator says it has not received any complaints relating to sacked Adelaide radio presenter Jeremy Cordeaux’s comments about Brittany Higgins.
Key points:
- Jeremy Cordeaux was yesterday unapologetic for his on-air remarks
- He described Brittany Higgins as a “silly little girl who got drunk”
- Ms Higgins said she was “grateful” to Cordeaux’s employers for taking action against him
On his Saturday morning program on commercial station FiveAA, Cordeaux labelled the alleged rape victim “a silly little girl who got drunk” who “should have her bottom smacked”.
Ms Higgins alleges she was raped inside the office of federal senior minister Linda Reynolds in Parliament House in 2019.
