Sudan: A savage war and toxic information battle

A year into the civil war in Sudan, the humanitarian costs have been staggering - but the news coverage has been minimal.A conflict on this scale should top the news agenda but it has been relegated to the back pages – in part – because of what is happening in Gaza and Ukraine. And it is increasingly difficult to deny that the lack of media interest in this war comes down to where it is being fought and how it is understood.Contributors:Hager Ali – Research fellow, German Institute for Global and Area Studies (GIGA)Kholood Khair – Founding director, Confluence AdvisoryMatthew Benson – Sudan research director, London School of EconomicsYassmin Abdel-Magied – Editor, Eyes on SudanOn our radar:Silencing the voices of dissent at United States universities over Israel and Gaza.

The United States’s abstention marks a pivotal moment in Israel’s increasing international isolation.In the Israeli media, the opposition to the UN vote is near-unanimous and unsurprising.

India's elections are coming up...are the media up to the task? | The India Report

The crackdown on India’s political opposition

Elections are weeks away in India and opposition parties are attempting to take on the seemingly unstoppable juggernaut of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who is seeking a third consecutive term.The opposition claims that Modi’s success rate has very little to do with his governance – but more because scores of his political rivals have been arrested or charged on questionable grounds. They say it has kneecapped the opposition and gamed the political arena in favour of the governing party.In this episode of The India Report, Sreenivasan Jain examines whether these actions are – as the Prime Minister claims – part of his crusade against high-level corruption, or an unprecedented campaign against of the opposition which is deeply dangerous to India’s democracy.Featuring:Derek O’Brien - Member of Indian ParliamentAdish Aggarwala - President, Supreme Court Bar AssociationAnjali Bhardwaj - Founder, Satark Nagrik SangathanPriyanka Kakkar - Chief Spokesperson, AAPMaya Tudor - Professor, Blavatnik School of Government

But why is Apple not updating to show new episodes?! This is happening w multiple Al Jazeera podcasts. I suspect it’s more western censorship. Fix this, Apple!!
