Or will you know exactly how to shove a stick right up Gina Rinehart’s butthole,” the film said.“Stirring it around, mixing her guts up nice and smooth, making her into one big sausage roll to make something out of nothing.”In a statement, an ABC spokesperson said the video was “satirical in tone”, acknowledging all content published by the broadcaster was bound by editorial guidelines.“Race Around the World features films created by amateur filmmakers, whose contributions reflect their own viewpoints and creative treatments,” the spokesperson said.“While contributors are not ABC journalists, all content broadcast by the ABC is subject to the ABC’s editorial standards, policies, and review processes. In this case, the film was intended to be satirical in tone and considered to be editorially justifiable within the context of the program.“We recognise that audiences may respond differently to creative content and hold a range of views about how it is presented. One of the judges critiqued the film during their assessment, and that feedback was included in the program.”The Hancock spokesperson said the segment was not an unscripted live comment, adding it would have “passed through production, editorial and broadcast processes.”“It is nothing short of disgusting that the ABC would encourage and normalise violence and murder by broadcasting, publishing and continuing to distribute this content,” the spokesperson said.“A public apology would be the minimum appropriate response, but more importantly, a light must be shone on who let this go to air in prime time, and action taken.”AustraliaCommentsABC dumps Four Corners episodes linked to sacked reporterKimberley Braddish","kind":"highlight","is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":false,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":false,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"0","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"isVideo":false,"video":null,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":0,"need_auth":false,"need_login_tip":false,"code":"91000000","status":"200"},"commentList":[],"isCommentEnd":true,"newsSizeData":{"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"favoriteSize":0,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false},"APP":{"userAgent":"Mozilla/5.0 AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko; compatible; ClaudeBot/1.0; +claudebot@anthropic.com)","isDev":false,"isTTM":true,"isLaohu8Offline":false,"tenantId":"TBGLOBAL","deviceId":"web-server-community-laohu8-v3","version":"4.47.1","shortVersion":"4.47.1","platform":"web","vendor":"web","appName":"ttm","isIOS":false,"isAndroid":false,"isTiger":false,"isTHS":false,"isWeiXin":false,"isWeiXinMini":false,"isWeiBo":false,"isQQ":false,"isBaiduSwan":false,"isBaiduBox":false,"isDingTalk":false,"isToutiao":false,"isOnePlus":false,"isHuaWei":false,"isXiaomi":false,"isXiaomiWebView":false,"isOppo":false,"isVivo":false,"isSamsung":false,"isMobile":false},"href":"/m/news/2654570053","isCrawlerRequest":true}
