State broadcaster implies the state controls the content, in particular has editorial control, over the content, and that's not the case with ABC.

The wikipedia page says this, which highlights that ABC isn't a state broadcaster.

> but is expressly independent of government

A state broadcaster implies state control. Public broadcasters such as PBS, BBC, ABC, RNZ, CBC, RTE etc are state owned but independently run
