Australia Talks: Muslims and the Media

ABC Radio National’s Australia Talks was focused on issues around Australian Muslims and the media (audio available for online listening and download) tonight.

In the last quarter century, the relationship between the Muslims and the western media has gone from being a non-issue to an everyday event. Tonight, on Australia Talks, we will look at the changing relationship between Muslims and the western Media …are Muslims being demonised in the media? How well does the western media understand Muslim issues and are some media outlets in danger of lumping all Muslims or Islamic groups with a single monolithic identity?

Caller “Dodi” is a classic. He blames media bias on “right wing think tank pro-zionists” and complains that there isn’t a Muslim representative on the ABC Board of Directors to balance out Janet Albrechsten (who Dodi calls “Janet AlbrechSTEIN”)
