The BBC Lawsuit That Broke My TV Habit.
In the swirl of news cycles that come and go like gusts through the swamp of modern media, this week’s legal salvo from Donald J. Trump at the BBC stands out as an unexpected compass. What makes this story so striking is not merely the headline figure of ten billion dollars but the deeper confrontation it embodies between truth and narrative, between accountability and sloppy journalism. I am thrilled to have canceled my TV licence because of it and want to explore why this matters far beyond this lawsuit itself (AP News).

Netanyahu: Exploiting Bondi Beach Attack?. Content Warning.
Let me be clear here, the attack on Bondi Beach by two Muslim killers with telescopic rifles on a Hannukkah or Festival of Lights gathering on Bondi Beach was evil. Jewish Australians had gathered on the famous beach to celebrate this religious festival, as is the right of every faith to celebrate its festivals. A father and son team with alleged links to the Islamic State took potshots as Jews dove for cover. A brave Muslim man, a former Syrian policeman, wrestled a gun off one of the attackers, the Father in this case. The attackers were a father and son team. Although some suspect a third man may have been involved. The Muslim man Ahmed al Ahmed is now in the hospital recovering from bullet wounds to his hand and arm.

Anthony Albanese: Ban on Social Media for Teens.
For a long time, I have felt there should be a ban on young people under 16 having access to social media. One Australian advocate and supporter, Wayne Holdsworth, lost his son due to malicious events on social media. Mr. Holdsworth described the ban as "As a start". Mr. Holdsworth became an age restriction advocate after losing his son, as described. Mr. Holdsworth is not the only one backing the ban. Many Australian families have also backed Prime Minister Albanese's ban. I think from a moral point of view, it is a good thing. However, as Mr. Albanese has pointed out, "It will not be easy".
