- I should not know your opinion
The segment on the Prince Harry and Meghan was disappointing. The hosts were discussing the Australian visit but also giving their opinion on the couple as well. I think it is important journalists remain neutral while discussing the content they cover, I should not know your opinion as you are covering this for The Australian, not your own independent show.

Apple Podcasts4Insomniac86Australia2 months ago - Anti Zionism is NOT anti Jewish or anti semitic
I’m incredulous as to how as journalists you would not know the difference between the ideology of Zionism and Judaism. It seems that you deliberately conflate the two.
Pro Palestinian rallies are fighting against Zionism and Israel and not Jews!!
Jews and Muslims lived and worked together in Palestine through history.
