Four Corners (Australian TV program)

Common card · No. 495679

Four Corners is an Australian investigative journalism and current affairs documentary television program. Broadcast on ABC TV, it premiered on 19 August 1961 and is Australia's longest-running current affairs television program. Originally a magazine program combining filmed reports and studio interviews, it developed a format centred on an extended report on a single subject. Its coverage includes politics, business and social issues in Australia and overseas. Investigations have contributed to public inquiries, including the Fitzgerald Inquiry into corruption in Queensland. The program has also been the subject of disputes over political bias and editorial standards. Four Corners has received Walkley Awards, including the Gold Walkley, and Logie Awards. In 1992, it became the first television program inducted into the Logie Hall of Fame.
