With the US on the brink of joining Israel's war against Iran, likely causing mass civilian deaths and plunging the region into chaos, Os and Scott look at the way media outlets actively helped lay the groundwork for this new conflict. They discuss how the war is being reported, and which civilians are humanised more. They revisit the 2003 invasion of Iraq, and compare how the same narratives are being rolled out by the media to justify war and regime change.
Also in this episode they discuss the future of the ABC after the organisation's latest restructure and cuts. They unpack the public broadcaster's pivot away from digital and back to TV and radio, and the gutting of arts and culture reporting.
Plus, they discuss what the Logies reveal about the state of Australian TV, the sale of the 7am podcast and (briefly) the discourse around Sabrina Carpenter's new album cover.
