What Ever Happened To Pete Evans?

Prior to 2020, Pete Evans was a judge on the popular Aussie TV reality cooking show, My Kitchen Rules.

He was just another celebrity chef, not that different to the rest of the foodie loving kitchen tyrants, or so we thought.

By the end of 2020, Evans was banned from social media platforms, dropped by management and sponsors and was even fined tens of thousands of dollars.

Today, we find out what happens to someone like Pete Evans, banned from the mainstream, and left to the echo chambers of the far right conspiracy theorists. 

Has the banishment led to any meaningful change or did it actually make matters worse?
