The verdict in the trial of Erin Patterson has been handed down but it looks like we're just at the beginning of a true crime, mushroom-related media deluge. Os and Scott dive into the coverage of the verdict, look at how the media reacted to the decision and highlight some of the strangest stories to come out of the trial.
Then, they look at how anti-Israel protests in Melbourne are being reported and the media's willingness to describe every protest action as an "anti-semitic attack". They look at why so many stories are missing key facts and context, and how the nature of the coverage is playing straight into the hands of politicians seeking to crack down on the right to protest.
And in Keeping Tabs, they look at the woeful ratings of the new show that replaced The Project and discuss 10's shock decision to sack the much-loved host of Survivor, Jonathan LaPaglia.
