Dear Australian Broadcasting Corporation

i would like to request all documents, material and information corresponding to why ABC has told me that they're allowed to lie and mislead the public on their news program's

information on abc's deliberate attempt to fabricate news that is absolutely false and can be proven wrong. This is seen on multiple levels through their news and their journalism.

please provide specific details about: the type of document/s; a
reasonable and specific timeline within which those documents may have
been created or received by the ABC;  a specific person or persons, or
department of the ABC, that may hold the documents you seek, or any other
information that would assist me in my search.
