NEWS WEAKLY – 14th September, 2024
Description:
This week on News Weakly, we tackle the bizarre, the political, and the absurd. From presidential debates that focus on pet protection, to Melbourne's protest culture hitting new lows with horse poo as ammunition, and Labor’s quest to save the internet, we break it all down. Join us as we punch the news in the headlines, weakly.
Top Stories of the Week:
Make America Safe for Cats and Dogs Again!
- In a US presidential debate that could only happen in 2024, Trump revives a wild claim about immigrants eating pets. We break down the ridiculousness and why Kamala Harris calling him a liar to his face might have been the best moment of the night.
Protestors Fling Poopoo on the PoPo!
- Melbourne is the city of protests, and this week saw it go to another level. Protesters at a weapons expo in Melbourne threw horse poo at police while battling it out with rubber bullets and tear gas. We dive into the chaos and ask whether the protest movement is losing public sympathy with its increasingly extreme tactics.
Labor Saves the Internet!
- Labor wants to take us back to the good old days of the internet, free from disinformation and age-inappropriate content. But will their new plans to regulate the internet be practical, or just another nightmare of surveillance and bureaucracy?
Quote of the Week:
"Just say they aren’t eating the pets! The longer you don’t say it, the more it looks like they’re eating the pets!" - Sami Shah, on the absurdity of the Trump administration’s claims in the presidential debate.
