Show Notes
This week, Jo Dyer and David Milner are joined by Bruce Wolpe and first-time guest Charlie Lewis from Crikey. The panel dissects that National Press Club address, and how the media (mis)handled Hanson's inflammatory rhetoric, as well as a curious pre-event disinvitation, and why so many reporters seemed more concerned about keeping Hanson happy than holding her accountable.
Also on the agenda, the Albanese government's latest capitulation to business lobby pressure on tax reform, Gina Reinhart's bizarre proposal to hand Australian islands to Elon Musk or Israeli defence contractors, and Trump's reasons for starting a war he couldn't win.
