Nevena and Osman talk to Alex McKinnon, a Sydney-based journalist who has been published in Al Jazeera, the New York Times, the Observer, the Guardian, Gawker, The Outline, Crikey and Overland. Since January 2024 he has been reporting extensively on the relentless campaign of censorship, punishment and silence being waged against people in Australia who oppose Israel’s genocide in the Gaza Strip. In 2024 he was honoured to be named by Crikey readers as one of their Shitstirrers of the Year.

In their most recent article they discuss that “ABC News consistently gave more prominence to the Israeli perspective and more frequently humanised Israelis than Palestinians in its Gaza coverage, according to a joint analysis by Deepcut and media watchdog Newscord”.

“The quantitative study – the first focusing on Australian news stories on Israel and Gaza – suggests ABC online news coverage has favoured Israel over the course of what numerous legal experts, human rights organisations and UN officials have described as a genocide”.
