Ben Fordham has revealed a story about Malcolm Turnbull’s interference in the media.

The former prime minister has come out in support of the ABC amid a Senate inquiry into their complaints handling processes.

“When Malcolm says on Twitter that he plays Mr Nice Guy in the press,” Ben said, “He’s lying”.

“Malcolm, let’s see if you can remember that phone call to the Channel 9 office in Canberra because the person on the other end of the line has never forgotten it!”
