Political Controversies and Media Narratives

Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has launched an extraordinary personal on Anthony Albanese and placed sanctions on Australian officials in the West Bank. Os and Scott discuss why Israel is specifically singling out Australia and Albanese and why the media is so reluctant to call out these obvious attempts at foreign interference in domestic police.

Also in the show, they discuss how the media is covering the anti-immigration "March for Australia", and debate how to effectively report on the far-right without giving them the attention and prominence they crave. They also look at how left-wing social media influencers are interacting with the far-right online and the consequences it's having.

Plus, Scott breaks down the economic reform summit that has captured the hearts and minds of Australia's political journalists.
