Worth noting, for those that aren’t going to bother reading the first line of the article, this is ABC the Australian Broadcasting Corporation, not ABC the American Broadcasting Company
This is hilarious. Not only are they only shutting down all but four of their biggest Twitter accounts it’s also not even the company people are thinking about. This is literally news about nothing happening and people are still riled up. Well done OP. I love it.

It’s not nothing. This is similar to if BBC stopped using it, only on a smaller scale.
That makes it so much more relevant to me. I wasnt going to read it because I figured it was the American ABC
I’ve never heard of the American Broadcasting Company. Is that a thing? It’s always Australian anytime anyone mentions the ABC.
Yes, it’s a private cable news and entertainment network in the states.
The US version is one of the big 3 broadcast channels transmitting since the mid 1900s, though it’s now also on cable:

It looks like the Australian one was around first. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Australian_Broadcasting_Corporation
Broadcast not cable, and owned by Disney.
There were basically 3 channels for a while – ABC, NBC, CBS. But yeah, their brand has really diminished.

Ten percent of people didn’t know and now feel bad they were tricked…
The other ninety percent don’t care because they just have hate boners for Twitter.
Clickbait
It says Australian in the headline
… after you click on the title that does not
Looks like your client is hiding that from you. Check it out in the Lemmy web UI and it’s there.
