“mirrors, amplifies & at times defends the Australian gov’s position at the expense of accountability interviews in pursuit of the truth. This is particularly prevalent with Israeli guests. This signals to audiences, not only whose voices matter, but crucially whose lives matter.“ #Auspol #Genocide

Analysing who writes for Quarterly Essay is revealing. Just 1/3 are women. Men more likely to write about politics. Women 'softer' issues. Triple the number of essays by men called David than women of colour. Lots of conflict essays, none dedicated to Gaza & Israel youtu.be/3aqPtasD_LM?...

In this episode Antoinette takes a close look at the politics and culture journal Quarterly Essay. Plus, we discuss Australia's complicity in the years-long “civil war” in Sudan, and the high school reporters taking their principals to court cover freedom of speech. Listen below:

Quarterly Essay, an award-winning Australian journal published by Schwartz Media, claims to present “the widest range of political, intellectual and cultural opinion”. But when Ette Media analysed who — and what — the journal publishes, the data reveals a far narrower picture. Read below 👇
ettemedia.com
Quarterly Essay calls itself Australia's leading journal of politics and culture. Whose politics? Whose culture?
Quarterly Essay published its 100th edition late last year. Who is chosen to write for it - and what they write about - is revealing.

Lots of headlines noting Wong is "outraged" after Israel cleared itself over murder of Aussie aid worker Zomi Frankcom. Wong also said "outraged" in an April 2024 interview with ABC when Zomi was killed. Not outraged enough to expel Israeli ambassador or stop exporting F35 parts that kill people

Is that a no, then? Sydney Swans CEO Matthew Pavlich said on Monday that Swans players had “found themselves” at the centre of an “alleged incident”... which turned out to be a sexual assault investigation. Meanwhile, Pavlich's passive language continues: the alleged crime is still an "incident".

Gina Rinehart has threatened the ABC with legal action. Is there any merit in it?
Putting the merit of what is clearly satire aside, the ABC segment that so incensed the mining magnate was clearly not defamatory. So what breaches would Gina be claiming?
