Sky News host Chris Kenny details how the Bondi Royal Commission is uncovering the role media and social platforms played in fuelling antisemitism before and after the Bondi massacre. “The Bondi Royal Commission was back in session today, and it was finally focusing on the role of some of the media in spreading antisemitism, in promoting Jew hatred in the lead up to the Bondi massacre and even afterwards,” Mr Kenny said. “Australia has let down Jewish migrants and Jewish Australians like it has never let down any group of people in our history. Social media has played a sickening role in misinforming people and in fuelling hatred. “No wonder Albo didn't want this Royal Commission; it is a daily uncovering of an intolerable and ongoing national disaster that he's done next to nothing to fix.”
