The Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC) removes a third episode of its Four Corners investigative program, according to multiple reports. The episode is led by journalist Mahmood Fazal. The decision follows earlier ABC removals affecting Four Corners content.
In addition to the third Four Corners episode, the broadcaster also pulls other material. Reports say ABC removes part of another television program and a show from Background Briefing, its flagship investigative radio program. The three outlets describe the removals as occurring across ABC’s television and radio services.
The coverage largely aligns on what is taken down and which ABC titles are affected, but it does not give a detailed explanation for the removals in the provided excerpts. Across the reports, the focus is on the scope of the ABC’s action—spanning multiple episodes and formats—rather than on any singular new allegation or specific rationale.
