Dogwhistling up clickbait - A News Corp tabloid reproduces a flyer for an anti immigration national protest complete with racist slogans, dates and times .. as a young migrant chef tells us why she will be too afraid to travel to her workplace on that day.
Is a letter of complaint from a pro Israel lobby about a Palestinian author the reason the Bendigo Writers Festival ordered authors not to discuss "inflammatory" topics - and was then left in ruins when half of the invited authors refused to attend?
And we farewell gentleman film reviewer David Stratton some 'At The Movies' highlights and the moving written tribute from his friend and co-host Margaret Pomeranz.
