    Why have hundreds of psychiatrists resigned in NSW?

    At least 200 psychiatrists have resigned from NSW public hospitals. It comes amid an ongoing dispute with the State Government, as psychiatrists call for better pay and working conditions. There are fears the sector could be reduced by two-thirds before the end of the month, triggering a "mental health crisis" for GPs. In today's deep dive, we’ll unpack the stalled negotiations between the NSW Government and the doctor’s union, and what it could mean for the state's health system.

    Why U.S. companies are cutting their diversity efforts

    Meta has become the latest company in the U.S. to walk back on its diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts — a move numerous corporations are making ahead of a Trump presidency. The parent company of Instagram, Facebook, and WhatsApp said it will no longer have "representation goals for women and ethnic minorities."In today's deep dive, we look at what's changing at Meta, is there an emerging trend in companies shifting away from diversity and inclusion, and what started this conversation?

    The website at the centre of the Pelicot rape case

    Last year, the story of a French rape case and the woman at its centre, Gisèle Pelicot, captured global attention.  Dominique Pelicot was sentenced to 20 years in jail for charges related to drugging, raping, and inviting others to rape his then-wife, Gisèle. 50 others were also found guilty of varying charges including rape, attempted rape, and sexual assault. The case is back in the headlines after the founder of a website (used by Dominique Pelicot to recruit other men to rape his wife) was charged by French police. In today's deep dive, we take a look at the outlawed chatroom 'Coco' and it's founder, Isaac Steidl. Hosts: Emma Gillespie and Zara SeidlerProducer: Orla Maher Want to support The Daily Aus?
