Mr Biden (right) should not be seeking another term in the forthcoming presidential election, which will be held in November, according to the 82-year-old (left). I'd espite [US president] Joe Biden's suggestion that he run another term,' she said. "You have to figure out when you need to take a step back." I felt that way. It had nothing to do with any recent happenings.' In what is expected to be a 2020 rematch, Mr Biden is expected to face 77-year-old Donald Trump.

Ita Buttrose is expected to resign from her role as chair of the ABC this week, with the media veteran announcing on Sunday that the primary reason for her departure from the top position isn't clear. 82, the television and radio presenter, has had a six-decade career in television and radio broadcasting, and he spent the past five years as chairperson of the government broadcasting corporation. Buttrose told Stellar's Something To Talk About podcast that it was simply her time, with her replacement Kim Williams set to take over the role this week.

Antoinette Lattouf, a former ABC radio host, has failed in her attempt to have the public radio broadcaster hand over a slew of emails relating to her dismissal. Ms Lattouf was suspended from her casual hosting role with the station last year and transferred the ABC to the Fair Work Commission in December, saying the decision was political because of Palestine and her Lebanese roots. Ms Lattouf's request that the ABC be ordered to hand over emails sent to chair Ita Buttrose and managing director David Anderson, who requested that Ms Lattouf be fired from office on Friday was turned down by the commission.

Andrew Spira, 25, the great-nephew of ABC chair Ita Buttrose, escaped in a plane when the credit card's owner noticed the booking transaction at the Mala Retreat in NSW's Hunter Valley. When budding entrepreneur Spira tried to leave the country on a false passport, he was arrested in the Northern Territory on a string of similar charges.

Lizzie Buttrose, a former Sydney socialite and one-time Real Housewives actress, posted a snapshot of her bloodied nose and chin over the weekend on social media. The man who assaulted Ms Buttrose accused her of being 'pure evil,' according to Ms Buttrose's caption.

Mr Albanese said he had talked with Opposition Leader Peter Dutton about the decision, but that no one in the press gallery had anticipated his decision.

After using stolen credit card details to book a bed and breakfast in NSW's Hunter Valley, Andrew Spira (right) pleaded guilty late last year to dishonestly receiving financial benefit. On Thursday, his counsel told a Sydney court that his client (left), who had been jailed for attempting to flee the country with a fake passport to raise an armed militia in Southeast Asia, was in a'drug-induced psychosis' at the time he committed the charges. The 25-year-old, nephew of ABC Chair Ita Buttrose (inset), had planned to stay the night at the bed and breakfast with his partner, but his payment was not received until they left the restaurant and travelled to the Northern Territory.

When she was fired on December 20, Lattouf had been serving as host for the national radio station's ABC Sydney Mornings radio show. She had been in office for three days and had two days to go before being banned from working against the ABC's social media policies in relation to Middle East messages. On Thursday morning, the ABC and Lattouf attended a private Fair Work Commission hearing in Sydney. Lattouf said that although the issue is not resolved, she will continue to fight, according to reporters after the hearing.

Ms Lattouf was fired three days into her week as a week-long fill-in host on ABC Sydney's morning show on December 20 for an Instagram post accusing the Israelis of "using starvation of civilians as a weapon of war in Gaza." She filed a Fair Work lawsuit, alleging that she was dismissed because of her political convictions and her Lebanese roots. However, the ABC reported that her assertion was "without merit" in legal documents submitted by the Fair Work Commission, arguing that "any "political view" submitted by (Ms Lattouf) was absolutely irrelevant to (and had no involvement in) the ABC's decision.

Secret WhatsApp messages from an Australian group Lawyers for Israel (inset) have revealed how they bombarded ABC chairman Ita Buttouf (right) with emails over Antoinette Lattouf's (left) appointment to request that she be dismissed as a morning show host.

On Friday morning, the words 'tell the truth about Palestine' were scrawled across the windows in white spray paint, though the ABC's logo had been covered in red graffiti.' Outside the national broadcaster's office in Southbank in the city's CBD, red paint had also been sprayed over the windows, front doors, and ground. The 'criminal harm' investigation is now being investigated by detectives.' The vandalism follows Antoinette Lattouf's axation, who had been filling in as the host of ABC's Sydney mornings this week for usual host Sarah Macdonald. Ms Lattouf's posts about the Middle East War, which appeared on various online platforms, are reportedly in breach of the ABC's social media policies.

The ABC has reprinted a TIk Tik news in which consumer boycotts of Israel were depicted in a flattering light. On Thursday morning, ABC reporter Amal Wehbe's report on the Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions (BDS) resistance campaign, which threatens Israeli exports and products that are seen as favoring Israel was taken off the ABC Tik Tok account. The restaurant owner claims that the only way to hurt Israel is to 'fight money with guns,' which could possibly invove a racial stereotype of Jewish people used to support anti-Semitic convictions and activities.

According to reports, a fill-in ABC radio presenter who was axed after a series of pro-Palestine posts on social media was fired after a flood of scathing comments from the Jewish community over the public broadcaster's top boss. Antoinette Lattouf, a host who had been waiting for Sarah Macdonald, broke his silence on Wednesday night to threaten legal proceedings just hours after she was banned from hosting the ABC Sydney mornings slot she had been covering. Ms Lattouf's appointment had been 'furious' by an insider, according to an insider.

When she pulled her car into the national broadcaster's parking garage only to find it full, the former 7.30 host said she was running late for a critical interview in 2020. With no time to waste, Sales decided to park in the spot reserved for Ms Buttrose, who then left a very stern note behind. 'Please DON'T park in my car park again,' the letter read. Sales recounted at the Andrew Olle Media Lecture in Sydney on Friday night. Ms Buttrose had also left her business card attached to the note, according to the veteran journalist.

Stan Grant has left the ABC completely, months after he went on leave as a result of racial abuse. On Tuesday, his resignation was confirmed, months after he stepped down as the host of Q+A. After appearing on a panel discussing colonialism ahead of King Charles' Coronation, Grant left the show in May after being exposed to "relentless racism."

Ita Buttrose will resign as ABC chair in March after five 'challenging' years in the position, which has already fueled widespread rumors about who will replace her in the plum job.

When the ABC revived classic Parkinson programs to celebrate its 90th anniversary of broadcasting, it warned that some of what the legendary talk show discussed with his guests more than 40 years ago was no longer relevant. Sixteen of the 28 episodes of Parkinson In Australia, which aired between 1979 and 1982, were released on ABC's iView website: 'The following shows behaviour that is not consistent with current legislation and may offend some viewers.' Former Prime Minister Bob Hawke, late media mogul Kerry Packer, and actor Paul Hogan appeared instalments to get the warning treatment. Parkinson interviewing Ita Buttrose, one of the allegedly offensive episodes, was all rated PG. Parkinson, 88, is photographed with his widow Mary.

It's your ABC, but this week, Australia's national broadcaster paid for by taxpayers seemed to be a runaway train chasing their own objectives, wrangling rivals in a fiery mic confrontation and double downing on an expensive court defamation cost. Perhaps the most unusual occurrence from ABC's week-from-hell was when an ABC TV crew invaded the home of a Perth mining executive with a group of 'extremist' climate activists. A camera crew and spray-paint carrying members of the Disrupt Burrup Hub went to Meg O'Neill's home in the little-reported case at 6.45 a.m. on Tuesday, with spray-paint carrying members of the Disrupt Burrup Hub. The ABC has vehemently denied the allegation, saying that it was only filming a story, but a war of words has erupted over a week in which the broadcaster has been reported for all the wrong reasons.

Premier Roger Cook (left) of Western Australia has written a letter (inset) to ABC Chair Ita Buttrose (right), slamming the national broadcaster for the behaviour of a camera crew outside of Meg O'Neill's home.

During the coverage of the Women's World Cup, the ABC has been lauded for using a local indigenous place name.

Ita Buttrose has expressed regret for the ABC's divisive coverage of King Charles' Coronation, but for monarchists, her apology has fallen flat. The two-hour special on May 6 featured four people, three of whom - Stan Grant, Indigenous activist Teela Reid, and Australian Republic Movement chair Craig Foster - are republicans, with Liberal MP Julian Leeser the lone monarchist. Many viewers were dissatisfied with the panel's comments attacking the Royal Family and focusing on the effects colonisation rather than reporting on the event itself.
