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.
Right wing lies & propaganda, with misogyny and racism heavily featured.
Though far from perfect, they are fairly accurate. They receive a lot of negativity due to the alarming amount of radical left wing terrorists here in Australia.
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.
Authoritative, unique and consistently compelling. This is a sharp, intelligent daily news podcast that cuts through the noise and delivers clarity fast. A must-listen for anyone who wants to stay properly informed.
