UK media hounds Black professor, Politico’s confusing neutrality stance + millennial TV shows love Israel

UK media hounds Black professor, Politico’s confusing neutrality stance + millennial TV shows love Israel18 Aug59 min

In this episode Jan and Antoinette explain why the death of Cambridge’s youngest Black professor Jason Arday was not, in fact, a “plagiarism row” but something far greater and more pernicious that the British press had a hand in.

Plus, popular newsletter Politico launches its Canberra team with claims to be neutral and not take a side. Its CEO - and a five-item checklist - says otherwise.

There’s also a shout-out to students taking on Pauline Hanson (and silly questions from the press), and the TikToker combing through 90s TV shows finding soft propaganda for Israel.
