Australian drug trafficker's media payday in doubt

CANBERRA, Australia (AP) — An Australian drug trafficker newly freed from an Indonesian prison faces an uphill battle under Australian law to keep any earnings from a reported multimillion-dollar interview deal.

Schapelle Corby walked out of Bali’s Kerobokan prison on Monday with a hat and scarf hiding her face from a waiting media throng. She was whisked away to an expensive Bali resort by Australia’s Seven Network, which media say has offered her as much as 3 million Australian dollars ($2.7 million) for an exclusive interview.
