Rebel is accused of being a fantastical liar who orchestrated a ‘complete revision of history’. She maintains she’s telling the truth – and that she’s a whistleblower who supports women.   A judge is deciding which version of events is true – with a decision expected any day.  Today, senior reporter at The Daily Telegraph, Nathanael Cooper, on the trial, the movie, and the consequences for everyone involved.   If you enjoy 7am , the best way you can support us is by making a contribution at 7ampodcast.com.au/support .   Socials: Stay in touch with us on Instagram Guest: Senior Reporter at The Daily Telegraph, Nathanael Cooper Photo:  AAP Image/Dean Lewins See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information. ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/7am-529740/episodes/why-is-rebel-wilson-being-sued-by-her-co-star/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/7am-529740/why-is-rebel-wilson-being-sued-by-her-co-star.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
