If you value independent journalism, support this show: https://bit.ly/4rqn9wF This week, Antony Loewenstein is joined by producer Lem for an extended conversation unpacking Australia’s Royal Commission into antisemitism and social cohesion, the political forces behind it, and the broader debate around Israel, Palestine, Zionism, protest movements, and free speech. Antony examines how the Bondi terror attack became tied to a wider national conversation about antisemitism, the role of pro-Israel lobbying in shaping media and political narratives, and the growing push to criminalise pro-Palestine speech and protest in Australia and beyond. The episode explores the distinction between antisemitism and anti-Zionism, the emotional and political impacts of reporting on Gaza, the conflation of criticism of Israel with hatred of Jewish people, and how governments, media organisations, and lobby groups are responding to rising tensions. Antony also reflects on historical antisemitism, the role of nationalism, the future of democratic protest, and why many people are increasingly turning away from mainstream media coverage in search of independent journalism and more honest conversations.

Inside the Feed (Part 2): Antony Loewenstein Reacts to Viral Clips on War, Media & Immigration

In this episode, Antony Loewenstein returns for Part 2 of his reaction series, breaking down a new batch of widely shared social media clips spanning Gaza, war narratives, Australian media, and immigration debates. From interviews defending alleged war crimes to viral claims about aid in Gaza and fear-driven rhetoric about national identity, Antony unpacks the messaging, context, and omissions behind what millions are watching online. Blending sharp media critique with on-the-ground insight and political analysis, Antony examines how these clips shape public opinion and what gets lost in the process. This episode expands beyond propaganda alone, highlighting how misinformation, nationalism, and emotional storytelling intersect across different issues dominating the digital conversation today.
