An Israeli settler just shot Odeh Hadalin in the lungs, a remarkable activist who helped us film No Other Land in Masafer Yatta. Residents identified Yinon Levi, sanctioned by the EU and US, as the shooter. This is him in the video firing like crazy.

Nine recently gave a boss accused of misconduct a $1 million payout. It’s putting up Scotty Cam in a five star hotel for the Paris Olympics. But this very profitable company refuses to offer its journalists fair pay. That’s why we’re striking. @withMEAA #DontTorchJournalism

200+ pro-Israel counterprotestors are attacking the @UCLA pro-Palestinian encampment. They started beating on one student and stomped another under a plywood board per @latimes @safinazzal on the scene. Where is UCLA security?

YouTube has blocked @AvaniDias powerful reporting about Sikh separatism in Punjab after a demand from the Indian government. It comes two weeks after the blocking of CBC's Fifth Estate program that featured footage of a Sikh seperatist's killing, and a year after a BBC documentary examining PM Modi's role during 2002 Gujarat riots was banned. India's general elections kick off on April 19. abc.net.au/news/2024-03-27/y…

Just a small sample of the casual #racism I sometimes cop as an Arab Australian journalist 🤌🏽 Notice how polite I was to him before he declared immigrants are the root of all problems. I was covering a hit and run by the way…but I guess the culprit is always “immigrants”.

The ABC MEAA House Committee said colleagues who come from diverse backgrounds are often disproportionately the target of attacks from the public, and often feel unsupported from ABC management and the Board: “To our culturally and linguistically diverse colleagues: you are not alone, we have your back.”
