- Call out racism!
Describing the racist remarks made by Jacinta Nampijinpa Price as inflammatory comments only serves to normalise this kind of rhetoric. Describes things as they are or don’t bother.

Apple Podcasts5MatronOfParkvilleAustralia2 months ago - Integrity Lost
This podcast used to deliver cutting political analysis, but sadly seems to have gone downhill in the last couple of years. The seeming inability to objectively report facts on an unfolding genocide and challenge the political establishment on its inaction and hypocrisy has been surprising and disappointing. Whether this is a reflection of broader censorship and culture problems at the ABC recently exposed in Antoinette Lattouf’s legal case, or of personal biases of the hosts remains unclear. R... more

For anyone with an ounce of media literacy, the way these podcasters frame Israel’s actions is difficult listening. Some very basic tips: try “systemic destruction” instead of “what’s happening” in Gaza. Try “mass murder” and “genocide” instead of “overreach”. Try applying some of the language you comfortably and fluently use to describe Hamas’s ideology and violence to the Israeli government which has wrought unspeakable horror in Gaza and the West Bank on a daily basis for years.

Listening to PK and Fran talking about Gaza is like listening to a children’s book illustrator explain the intricacies of designing a nuclear submarine at a Labor socialist left weekly get together. If this is your thing then five stars
