Jimmy Kimmel's late-night show has been pulled off the air "for the foreseeable future" after the host made comments about political reactions to the killing of Charlie Kirk. The move by Disney, which owns ABC, came after a major TV station owner said it would drop the show, and the head of the U.S. communications regulator threatened regulatory action. Today we're unpacking what Kimmel said, why it's caused such a major response, and what this means for media regulation in the U.S. Hosts: Sam Koslowski and Emma GillespieProducer: Orla Maher Want to support The Daily Aus?

Israel's ground offensive in Gaza City
Israel has launched a ground offensive into Gaza City, displacing hundreds of thousands of Palestinians. The country’s leadership says the city is the last stronghold of Hamas, while international governments and the UN have condemned the attacks. The offensive began shortly after a UN commission of inquiry announced it had found Israel was carrying out a genocide of Palestinians in Gaza. In today’s episode, we’ll explain what to know about these two developments, and the international reaction. Hosts: Lucy Tassell and Emma GillespieProducer: Orla Maher Want to support The Daily Aus?

Is NATO close to war with Russia?
In the past two weeks, both Poland and Romania have reported Russian drones flying in their airspace. Importantly, NATO forces shot down Russian aircraft for the first time in the alliance's 75-year history. Both countries are neighbours of Ukraine, which continues to face Russian airstrikes and ground offensives as the conflict between Russia and Ukraine continues. But there’s a key difference between an attack on Ukraine, and an attack on Poland or Romania - and that’s NATO. On today’s podcast, we’re going to take a look at what makes Russian activity in Poland and Romania different, the idea of collective defence, and the broader implications.
