ABC Investigates Manipulated Footage of Ex-Commando Heston Russell with Five Extra Gunshots

Sep 15, 2024, 10:36 PM

The Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC) has launched an investigation into allegations of manipulated footage involving ex-Commando Heston Russell and his November Platoon. The controversy arose after ABC aired a video that seemingly added five extra gunshots to the original footage, which only showed one shot being fired. This has led to ABC removing the footage due to an audio 'error.' Heston Russell is also suing ABC for defamation over the incident.
