The ABC apologises for a Race Around the World episode containing remarks about mining magnate Gina Rinehart AO, despite the broadcaster's ombudsman finding it did not breach editorial standards.

In short:

The ABC Ombudsman has found that a Race Around the World episode that featured a fictional scenario involving a violent attack on businesswoman Gina Rinehart did not breach ABC Editorial Standards.

Mrs Rinehart’s company, Hancock Prospecting, wrote a complaint about the episode to the ABC Board in July.

The ABC’s managing director Hugh Marks has apologised to Gina Rinehart and the material subject to the complaint has been removed from ABC platforms.
