Lisa Wilkinson has come under fire for allegedly coaching Brittany Higgins and her partner David Shiraz on which MP’s to approach when the story around her alleged rape broke.

While talking to Karl and Millsy on 6PR Breakfast Entertainment commentator Peter Ford told them there was no doubt that Wilkinson and her husband were “under fire.”

“I seem to be the only one defending her, and I  would certainly defend her right to block anyone online: she should not have to make herself available to respond to criticism or abuse.” Mr Ford said.

Ford went on to provide examples of his own social media presence and says he himself has ‘blocked up to 8000 people.’
