In short:

The ABC has been ordered to pay a fine of $150,000 to journalist Antoinette Lattouf for her unlawful termination.

Ms Lattouf had already been awarded $70,000 in compensation for non-economic loss.

The judge found the decision to remove Lattouf from ABC Radio Sydney was made to appease pro-Israel lobbyists behind a campaign of complaints.

It's something, but it's not enough in my opinion.
