A contestant on the ABC’s Race Around the World has apologised after one of her remarks on the reality show was referred to the broadcaster’s internal ombudsman. Hancock Prospecting, Ms Rinehart’s company, called on the broadcaster to apologise and remove the segment for depicting violence against the mining magnate. Camera Icon The ABC aired a controversial clip depicting violence against mining magnate Gina Rinehart, which a spokesperson said was intended to be ‘satirical’ in tone. “The sense of humour featured in each of my films on the Race Around The World program is farcical,” Ms McGuinness said. The ABC Ombudsman is an internal office that reports directly to the ABC board.
