    Bernard Keane Retweeted Lyle Shelton

    Outrageous that an explicit legal defence put in to protect free speech should have to be cited to protect free speech!https://twitter.com/LyleShelton/status/845381853217378304 …

    Lyle Shelton @LyleShelton
    The idea Leak had to use 18D to prove good faith is a betrayal of everything free people have believed for centuries. #processaspunishment https://twitter.com/australian/status/845309199118684160 …

        of course if Leak hadn't tried to exploit people basest emotions with racist cartoons he wouldn't have needed 18d either

        Yeah, but if Leak did that Hinch and Macdonald wouldn't have the opportunity to rip into Triggs in Senate estimates. Again.

        18D inverts the burden of proof - you don't think this would have a chilling effect?

        Is that a triple or quadruple somersault with added spin on the 18D?

        The authors obviously had trouble agreeing on a suitable combination of words in 18C thus requiring the balance of 18D.
