ABC removes third Four Corners episode led by Mahmood Fazal
The national broadcaster also pulled part of another TV program and a show from its flagship investigative radio program, Background Briefing.
ABC has removed three more episodes and edited one more by sacked reporter Mahmood Fazal due to concerns over the use of anonymous interviewees. Two episodes of Four Corners and a Background Briefing program were withdrawn, while a short segment from The Postcode Wars was edited. Fazal, who was terminated in May, maintains he will continue reporting on Australia's underworld. The ABC remains committed to journalistic integrity, noting all prior reporting by Fazal met editorial standards.
