I've had retractions printed in nearly every Australian news website, and among the 3 times I've contacted the ABC about inaccurate reporting the average response time is 1.5 months. 100% of my reports resulted in retractions (extremely delayed ones).

This is not an organisation that cares about journalistic integrity. In fact they actively eschew ethics while their private sector counterparts reply in 1/50th the time or less.

Also, you're using an ABC-produced show as evidence that the ABC isn't ethically compromised? "We investigated ourselves and found we we did nothing wrong"?

Before you accuse me of being a shill, remember I've had retractions printed in News Corp outlets, too.
