60minutes reportedly paid Mr Tostee up to six-figures for the exclusive tell-all interview but he has now hit back at the organisation for ‘milking’ the story
The show had previously paid up to six-figures for the exclusive tell-all interview with him.
However, now Mr Tostee has hit back at the organisation after it posted an advertisement for the podcast on social media.
He has also taken aim at social media users in a fiery Facebook rant.
’60 Minutes Australia, how much more do you want to milk this?,’ he commented on the post.

‘Are you that devoid of genuine news that you feel the need to repost this 4+ year old story for the second time in a month.’
When a woman accused him of being misogynistic he let loose, saying ‘victim blaming’ was ‘hardcoded into the fembot brain’.
‘They shout it out voluntarily whenever they detect the slightest suggestion that a female might be responsible for her own actions,’ his response said.

Tostee drew criticism last year after he posted a derogatory post on Facebook to mark International Women’s Day. ‘Happy International Women’s Day to all ma hoes!!’, he wrote
‘This signals a challenge to all the other fembots, who then start shouting it louder and louder themselves. Whoever screeches the words loudest becomes the alpha fembot.
‘Then, they go back to reading their true crime paperbacks and crying themselves to sleep.’
He is no stranger to controversy, having shared several provocative posts to his social media accounts following his highly publicised trial.
In a Facebook post last year Mr Tostee wrote, ‘The best cure for feminism is a good root,’ accompanied by a photo of a raised middle finger.
The backlash he received on social media failed to deter him, as he went on to make more controversial posts.
Mr Tostee has also referred to his murder acquittal in an online post, saying: ‘the only thing I murder is p***y’.
His other posts vary greatly, from rambling philosophical questions to pop culture references to support for US President Donald Trump.
