An amazing weekend for Murdoch-ologists with revelatory reporting in @nytimes and @TheAtlantic ... my analysis of what we've learned is here: @crikey_news https://t.co/45DRcGDYsS

[Paddy Manning @gpaddymanning]

@newscorpaus accounts for 2023-24 filed today look interesting: slumped from a $17.9m profit to a $43.3m loss after tax ... worse than I thought tbh and a different picture than emerges from the parent accounts which still show the news media division is profitable globally

[Paddy Manning @gpaddymanning]

Out now! In which Lachlan Murdoch's politics harden from 'soft left' in his 20s to pro-Trump by the 2020 election, when he proves that if push comes to shove he is willing to put the profitability of Fox News above all else. That's why he's #thesuccessor https://t.co/cIhK0oCoTs

🩸New article by @awinston and me, looking into FBI informant and militant far-right occultist Joshua Caleb Sutter (of the O9A US nexion ‘Tempel ov Blood’). We discovered he was connected to US authorities longer than anyone knew. Read to the end. https://t.co/x5rxf6719H

Good capsule description of what has happened in this space since 2010. (And I live, breathe and teach this subject...) https://t.co/4HC1hnJk1W

“Racism is pointless but not harmless.”The undercurrent of racism in Australian society & the rise of neo-nationalism is not new. Great podcast by Crispian Chan & ⁦⁦@alexsmann⁩ Have a listen. https://t.co/padORbiRi0

[Indounik @Indounik]

A powerful & punishing podcast recounts a dark chapter in Perth's history through the eyes of Chrispian Chan whose parents' Chinese restaurant was firebombed by a neo-Nazi cadre led by the bloke on the left, the son of an Indonesian-Dutch father.

[The Lindsay McDowens Board Of Peace @doctormcdougall]

Just started listening to Unravel: Firebomb yesterday. It’s amazing, horrific and also unsurprising. I remember hearing stories of racism like this (east coast, not Perth) when I was young, but nothing as full on and laid out like this before. @alexsmann https://t.co/OrTmUCeBH6

[Alex Mann @alexsmann]

@doctormcdougall Thanks Lindsay. The series is like a fine wine - only gets better as the episodes go on. Final episode released on Tuesday this week. Crispian is an incredible host and I feel so lucky he shared his family’s story with us all.
