Media, Entertainment & Arts Alliance director Katelin McInerney says the Seven Network’s dismissal of Amy Taeuber demonstrates that media executives must be proactive in addressing the issue of harassment in the workplace. Seven has come under scrutiny in the wake of claims that Taeuber had been sacked after lodging a sexual harassment complaint. However, Seven has denied that this was the reason for her dismissal, which is believed to have been due to allegations that she made disparaging comments about reality-TV show contestants on a blog.
