ABC you canβt hide, you are covering up genocide!
Join us on Sunday 14th September at 2pm outside the ABC Studios at Russell St in South Brisbane. Demand the ABC stop providing lip service for genocide!
Israel refuses to allow journalists entry into Gaza and intentionally targets Palestinian journalists. More than 270 Palestinian journalists have been murdered by Israel in targeted attacks since October 2023. This is more than four times the number of journalists killed in the entirety of WWII.
βYou only target journalists when your enemy is the truth.β
The ABC is running cover for genocide. Following Antoinette
Lattoufβs unfair dismissal, the ABC has unveiled a draconian social media policy for its employees which may impinge on workersβ civil liberties. This is our public broadcaster, with a $1 billion annual budget, which rather than examine its own complicity in promoting Israeli propaganda would instead crack down on workersβ rights to freedom of speech on their own personal platforms.
Shame on the ABC!
From our comrades with Northern Rivers Friends of Palestine:
βIsrael is committing war crimes by murdering journalists, and we need journalists on this continent and around the world to report truthfully and stop amplifying and repeating genocidal Israeli propaganda as if it could remotely be true.
STOP WATCHING YOUR COLLEAGUES BEING MURDERED AND THE TRUTH ALONG WITH THEM.β
On Sunday 14th September we are taking our protest to the ABCβs door. Join us, bring your family and friends and demand the ABC end its complicity in genocide.
Rally at 2pm, with a march to Musgrave Park commencing at 3pm.
ABC - Stop Silencing Palestine!
