Why is Australia's Media More Pro-Iran War than the US'? Plus, Kyle vs. Jackie O and the End of HBO

Os and Scott open with a discussion about the break-up of the biggest and most expensive media partnership in Australia: Kyle and Jackie O. They look what the end of the $200 million deal could mean, and why staff at the radio network that paid them are celebrating.Next, they break down the latest in the war on Iran and how it has become apparent that Trump was manipulated into bombing Iran by Israel's PM Benjamin Netanyahu and what could mean for the end game. They also discuss how the Albanese government has doubled-down on its support for the war, even as more and more European nations declare it illegal. Finally, they investigate why the Australian media seems more shamelessly pro war than compared to the US media.In Keeping Tabs, they unpack the the takeover of Warner Bros. by the right-wing, pro-Trump, pro-Israel Ellison family. They look at what it means both for the news media, with CNN likely to face huge cuts, and the entertainment media, with HBO and the Warner Bros. film studio falling under the Ellison's control.Support Lamestream by visiting our website to sign up and become a subscriber.Follow us on social media:InstagramTikTokYouTube Hosted on Acast.
