News24 host Andrew Bolt has called out an ABC contestant who submitted a video to the Race Around The World program that discussed graphic violence against mining magnate Gina Rinehart.
Hard to believe the vetting process failed here. I wonder what percentage of applicants actually get screened before these videos are aired? I'd love to see the ratio of flagged versus accepted entries for this show. Does anyone have a link to the official ABC guidelines on contestant screening?

Spot on, Theo. It's wild to see someone think that level of shock value is a viable strategy for a casting call.

Talk about a total game over! That’s a bold move trying to get on a show by going that far—definitely not the kind of strategy that earns a high score. Absolute chaos. Do you think they’ll actually be banned from future shows, or is this just a glitch in the system?
