Hancock Prospecting calls for editorial overhaul after ABC’s late apology for Race Around World video

Gina Rinehart’s Hancock Prospecting has called for sweeping changes to the ABC’s editorial standards after the national broadcaster issued a belated apology over a video segment that featured graphic references to violence against the billionaire. “We wait to see the long overdue changes to the ABC’s ‘editorial standards’. The call for change comes after the matter was referred to the ABC Ombudsman, which found that the program did not breach the broadcaster’s editorial standards. “The ABC and now the ABC Ombudsman have both stated that this program ‘met the ABC’s editorial standards’! “The internal ABC Ombudsman’s decision that the ABC did not breach ABC Editorial Standards fails all Australian women and the millions of taxpayers who fund the ABC.”
