support independent media and become a subscriber at www.ettemedia.com In this episode, we dissect the media’s coverage of Israeli President Isaac Herzog’s visit to Australia. We look at how two networks asked very different questions, analyse the warm, sympathetic coverage in the lead up and keep an eye on the outlets that dutifully repeated government lines even as footage showed police violence in plain sight. We also look at what was missing from most of the coverage. Hint: it was any mention of the genocide. Also, Australian commercial radio outs itself yet again as tacitly racist after Puerto Rican artist Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl performance. And Today host Karl Stefanovic launches a podcast that winks hard at a far right audience. Plus a shout out to The Point, an independent think tank’s new publishing arm, stacked with good writers. 00:00 Intro + live show review 2:53 What’s in the show 4:45 Super Bowl Bad Bunny Aussie commercial radio racism 9:30 Fox FM tags Bad Bunny on Nandos social gag 12:41 Karl Stefanovic’s new podcast courts far right 15:50 Stefanovic and Barnaby Joyce in akubras 19:00 Breakfast TV hosts courting One Nation 24:15 Jan Fran’s overwhelm 25:20 Israeli president Isaac Herzog comes to Australia 26:36 Anti-Herzog protests 27:50 Attacks on Muslim men praying - media framing 36:00 Herzog only answered 4 reporter questions 38:15 Who gets to have an opinion? 45:00 ABC Sydney interview that rattled our listeners 51:57 ABC echoing Murdoch media 54:26 ABC Insider’s panel banality and homogeneity on Herzog 01:03:01 It’s a Yes From Us 01:05:02 How to Support Us
