There’s been a bit going on in the world of media in Australia.

Just last week, a court case began over the ABC’s sacking of high-profile presenter Antoinette Lattouf, while in another case, cricket commentator Peter Lalor was told to back his bags by a commercial radio station.

And the drama is all over what they had posted on social media about the war in Gaza.

But what do these cases mean for everyone else? Can your employer sack you if you post something about the war? 

Today, employment lawyer Cilla Robinson answers this vexed question, but first, media writer Calum Jaspan brings us up to speed with ABC versus  Antoinette Latouff.
