Sarah is joined by founder and host of Lamestream media, Osman Faruqi, to dig into the wild and ever-changing media and political landscape in Australia.
Is there a Zack Polanski or Zohran Mamdani waiting to emerge in Australia? Why don’t we read the news anymore? And how do independent media outlets like Lamestream ensure they reach beyond the silo? From the role of legacy news outlets to the rise in independent media, the pair talk about how much has changed since Faruqi was the editor of a youth media news network in 2015.
