Bolt found guilty of discrimination

Journalist and political commentator Andrew Bolt has been found guilty of breaching the Racial Discrimination Act over a series of articles he wrote two years ago.

Bolt was being sued in the Federal Court by nine Aboriginal people including former ATSIC chairman Geoff Clark, academic Professor Larissa Behrendt, activist Pat Eatock, photographer Bindi Cole, author Anita Heiss, health worker Leeanne Enoch, native title expert Graham Atkinson, academic Wayne Atkinson and lawyer Mark McMillan.

They alleged a series of articles written by Bolt two years ago implied light-skinned people who identified as Aboriginal did so for personal gain — via redwolf.newsvine.com
