How to obscure Israel’s ongoing genocide as a passive humanitarian crisis:
-Mention Israel once in a 4.5m broadcast
-Report inadequate aid & starving Palestinian mums and babies while omitting who's responsible
-Report 800 killed since "ceasefire" while omitting the perpetrator
It was so great to join @Boganintelpod to discuss the failings in Australian media coverage on Palestine and the underreported realities in the occupied West Bank.
We unpack patterns in reporting, unchecked political claims, and the consequences of what goes unchallenged.
Israel attacked Iran. That is the story.
Israel calling it a "pre-emptive strike" is an attempt to manufacture consent for its aggression. The ABC is providing a platform for it.
Excellent post on Insta re Australia's @abcnews leaving out so much context in its reporting of Trump's illegal, unsanctioned attack on Venezuela and the kidnapping of their president.

Media bias isn't always obvious - but it shapes how we understand current events.
Here are 5 subtle (but powerful) tactics used in Australian coverage of Palestine, with real examples from 2025 headlines 🧵
Introducing MSSING CONTEXT - a new platform exposing how Australian media misreports on Palestine.
We combine fact-checking, disinformation research & MENA expertise to unpack bias and bring audiences a clearer, more honest picture of reality on the ground in Palestine.
Every ABC reporter in Jerusalem has done this story every year for the past 3+ decades.
That why it’s past time to call what Israel is doing in the West Bank for what it is
@hrw & @amnesty have found Israeli authorities are committing the crime against humanity of #Apartheid
Latest piece with @rmit_factlab
Sky News commentators and online users claim the #IndigenousVoiceToParliament will create apartheid in Australia - but the claim is false.

An "essay" shared more than 43,000 times on Facebook, has been wrongly attributed to Aboriginal leader Bess Nungarrayi Price. It contains the false claim that Aus was terra nullius at the time of European settlement.

My latest piece with @rmit_factlab
We found claims made on Sky News - that the UN is advocating for a separate Indigenous nation within Australia - to be false.
Big thanks to @DrAmyMaguire & @katgallow for their expert legal analysis.

"Leading anti-Voice campaigner Nyunggai Warren Mundine has used social media to post a photo of an Indigenous man named Stewart Lingiari, wrongly claiming he is the grandson of the famous land rights activist Vincent Lingiari, and that he is opposed to the Voice referendum."
Geeking out is the perfect description! We barely scratched the surface in 2 hours. Could have chatted for another 2, 3, 4 hours easily w @WJ_Armstrong.
Looking forward to continuing our chat when I’m back in Istanbul over a bottle of Australian wine or two ☺️
