Four Corners is Australia's premier television current affairs program. It has been part of the national story since August 1961, exposing scandals, triggering inquiries, firing debate, confronting taboos and interpreting fads, trends and sub-cultures. Its consistently high standards of journalism and film-making have earned international recognition and an array of Walkleys, Logies and other national awards.
Four Corners unveils Australia's first comprehensive national map of Adult Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), revealing stark differences by location.
ADHD diagnoses in Australian adults have risen dramatically over the past eight years, especially in women.
Data for each state and territory reveal which suburbs are the hotspots. The findings are not what you'd expect.
Dr Norman Swan and the team drill down into the new figures and discover which is Australia's ADHD capital. Treatment rates there far exceed what experts say is the actual prevalence of the condition.
At the same time, large parts of Australia are ADHD deserts, where up to 90% of adults who might have ADHD are being left undiagnosed and untreated with potential consequences for their future.
Attention Deficit asks how Australia ended up with such extremes, what harm is being done from both missed and misdiagnosis, why the system is failing and whether proposed remedies are likely to work?
After four years of war, in Russia there is close to zero public opposition to Putin's invasion of Ukraine. But a few are prepared to speak out.
Four Corners sees Grace Tobin puts police taser use under scrutiny, and the role played by the device's manufacturer, Axon.
Police across Australia have embraced tasers over the past two decades.
The weapons are meant to be a safer way to stop dangerous situations, without taking a life. But people are still dying.
This week Four Corners reveals the secretive tactics behind investigations into controversial deaths, and the role played by the device's manufacturer, Axon.
Reported by Grace Tobin from the ABC's investigative reporting team, Taser Tactics features an in-depth interview with the family of 95-year-old Clare Nowland, who died after being tasered in a nursing home in 2023, as well as shocking footage of a farmer being tasered within seconds of a police encounter on private property.
For the first time, the program examines how a multibillion-dollar US tech giant has made itself indispensable to police in every state and territory.
At its core, Taser Tactics asks a simple question: When something goes wrong after a taser is used, who decides what actually happened?
The Salvadoran president's deal with Trump to imprison deportees, and what each stood to gain. With the Salvadoran news outlet El Faro, now reporting from exile, President Nayib Bukele's tangled history with the gangs the U.S. says it is fighting.
Looks like something went completely wrong!
