Is the media’s reporting on Israel’s attacks on Gaza fuelling antisemitism?
That’s the question facing the Royal Commission into Antisemitism and Social Cohesion – which has been examining the role of the public broadcasters – the ABC and SBS.
Appearing before the commission was Australia’s Special Envoy to Combat Antisemitism, Jillian Segal – who came out swinging at the broadcasters’ Middle East coverage, recommending it be overseen by an independent committee.
