Answer: stick him on a panel show!
JUST when we thought we’d seen the last of Mark Latham, Channel Nine plucks him up out of the sin bin and sticks him on a new TV show next to your boy Karl Stefanovic.
Yup, Karlos is hosting a new panel show [ 
] with the pilot to be filmed on September 9. Other panellists include former politicians, actors, and business types that answer to names like Amanda Vanstone, Pallavi Sharda, Tammy May, Seb Robertson… and Mark Latham, who should be just a delight when discussing racism and same-sex marriage.
Latho’s recent antics have elevated him to the status of ‘the new bad boy of Australian media’, or at least, they would, if that moniker didn’t imply Hugh Grant-levels of filthy charm, of which Latham does not possess.
His talk at the Melbourne Writers Festival was so foul-mouthed that people actually walked out, and provoked a Headmaster-esque tweet that gives off distinct “detention” vibes:
We’re disappointed in Mark Latham’s #MWF15 appearance today. Not the respectful conversation we value.

And ICYM this particularly nasty piece of work at MBF, someone only just uploaded the entire thing:
Considering that “fuck, cunt, poo, bum” is an actual sentence that came out of Latham’s mouth, there’s not a chance we won’t be watching – plus, y’know, Karlos on late night TV.
We’ll bring you more as the story develops via his dirty fucking mouth.
