Just got home from a walk long
Brooke!
I love Brooke. Her voice of curiosity and experience and willingness to look at things without, or at least acknowledging, prejudice is like a refreshing breeze to me.
But.
I cannot believe she isn’t talking about the media and the reporting relating to the “conflict” in Palestine and the history behind it and the MEDIA response. This is totally Brooke territory in my opinion! I’m flummoxed.
I stopped following but check in with OTM just in case Brooke has done some amazing, as usual, look at the media’s coverage of Gaza and Israel and protests and silencing voices and on and on. But Brooke has been silent.
I’m giving OTM one star for this.
Excellent news literacy podcast
Great examinations of the internet and all its dark goings on.
