Hell, the President himself threatened ABC: https://www.cnn.com/2025/09/16/politics/video/trump-threatens-to-go-after-abc-news-reporter-digvid-vrtc
No, that was Jonathan Karl of the American Broadcasting Company.
But you're right in that he also threatened John Lyons of the Australian Broadcasting Corporation at the same event: https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/sep/16/donald-trump-clashes-with-australian-abc-journalist-and-hints-at-albanese-meeting
And Trump did distinguish between the two ABCs, mentioning the leader of Australia to the Australian, and the lawsuit against ABC to the American.
