Pauline Hanson dominates attention economy
About this episode
The episode discusses Pauline Hanson's defense of her podcast appearance and the Albanese Government's response to Islamophobia.
One Nation leader Pauline Hanson has robustly defended her appearance on controversial far-right agitator Tommy Robinson's podcast amid backlash. But while the minor party has issued some clarifications, does the controversy feed into Pauline Hanson's playbook and has she succeed in "consuming the attention economy"? Meanwhile, the Albanese Government has responded to its special envoy's report on Islamophobia 10-months after it was released. So, what message is Labor trying to send at a time of fraying social cohesion? Patricia Karvelas and Jacob Greber break it all down on Politics Now.
