Controversy

In April 2017, Milborn was at the center of a public controversy after describing an advertising photo by the Palmers textile company as sexist . The former extreme athlete Felix Baumgartner replied:

“It's nice when some of you get upset again at home, even at Easter! Above all, Puls-4 information manager and presenter Corinna Milborn, no wonder with the figure! "

After Milborn invited him to face the discussion about his image of women and its effects in their broadcast, Baumgartner declined and spoke of “swinging the club of sexism” and in turn criticized Milborn's transmitter Puls 4 for the broadcast series “ Austria's Next Top Model ”. An episode of the model show would spread as much sexism as all Palmers posters in the past 100 years.
