Sorry it's a news.com.au article but last time I checked ABC didn't even acknowledge that the protest existed at UQ

Thanks. I particularly take issue with the way these articles are written for example:

Hamas operatives slaughtered 1200 Israelis, including children, in the attack

vs

led to the deaths of thousands of Palestinian civilians

No bias at all no way! Let the idiots think they just don't like you because you're Jewish not because you're a dickhead

Much appreciated 👍 ( BTW, creating and/or linking a Wayback Machine archive is also a good option, e.g. https://web.archive.org/save/https://www.news.com.au/national/politics/university-of-queensland-palestine-protest-fury-turns-to-boeing/news-story/8f65afb1ea64b3aa8e294578b4c43e10 )

It actually reads like pretty reasonable coverage until you get to "A wave of anti-Jewish hatred has washed over Australia...". God, imagine credulously reporting stats put out by the ECAJ, how embarrassing.

Oh huh. The Wayback Machine doesn't usually work on Murdoch articles, so I didn't even try it here. I'll edit to just send people there instead.
