News Corp outlets have accused the ABC of unethical editing in a 2021 Four Corners program, comparing it to the BBC's Panorama controversy that led to resignations last week.
Commentator Chris Kenny described the ABC's treatment of Donald Trump's speech on the day of the US Capitol attack as an 'almost identical act of deception' to the BBC's edit.
The ABC's managing director, Hugh Marks, is due to appear at the National Press Club on Wednesday, where he may face questions about the allegations.

The source material in question is Trump's 6 January 2021 speech, with critics claiming the ABC distorted its content in the broadcast.
