ABC Media Watch accuses Michael West of spreading misinformation over posts calling the flydubai hijacking “probably” a false flag. Michael West puts his reply to executive producer Mario Christodoulou on the record: the questions the ABC has not asked about October 7, the stories on Australian charities funding the IDF, Australians serving with it and public grants to the Israel lobby that MWM broke first, and why a broadcaster with a $1.23 billion budget ran the UN report on Palestinian children a day late. #flydubai #auspol #october7 #abc
