Description:

It shouldn’t be much of a surprise that even a space like LinkedIn, a professional social media site, is being used by powerful men to try to attract women.

In this case, it’s allegations against not just any powerful man, but one of Australia’s richest.

Billionaire Richard White is the chief executive of Australia’s biggest listed technology company WiseTech Global, and he has also been described by one woman as “The LinkedIn Lecher”.

White, on the other hand, says he is unaware of any women who have been made to feel uncomfortable about his comments on LinkedIn.

Today, investigative reporter Kate McClymont on the allegations against the rich-lister and why reporting on it matters.
