‘Perverted fantasy’: Fmr Media Watch host criticises ABC over Rinehart video | ABC NEWS
The ABC has apologised to mining magnate Gina Rinehart over an episode of ‘Race Around the World’ portraying a fictional scenario that involved a violent attack on Australia’s richest person.
The apology comes despite the ABC Ombudsman finding the episode did not breach the ABC Editorial Standards relating to harm and offence.
Former Media Watch host Jonathan Holmes tells ABC’s Afternoon Briefing he is surprised that it was not found in breach, and explains what he thinks will happen next.
