For the latest news and current affairs in Yiddish, a unique report with Alex Dafner...The Jewish Labor Parliamentarian for Melbourne Ports, Michael Danby MP defended his legal use of a small amount of tax-payer funds to place two adverts in the Australian Jewish News, accusing the ABCs M-E correspondent Sophie McNeil of anti-Israel bias in reporting on events to do with Israel and the Palestinian conflict, an accusation vehemently rejected by the ABC. Australian media representatives from private and public media organisations spoke at the Sydney Jewish Museum about their deep and emotional impressions, following an intensive visit to Israel and the West Bank recently. The chief historian at the Yad Vashem, Jerusalem Holocaust Museum, Prof Dina Porat spoke at the Caulfield Synagogue in Melbourne on the topic of fighting raising anti-Semitism and the role that the Yad Vashem plays in getting the lessons of the Holocaust out to the youth of the 21st century.
