In this episode of Occupied Thoughts, FMEP President Lara Friedman speaks with Dr. Assal Rad and Professor Marc Owen Jones -- two of the most prominent voices and most astute analysts of the role that media and disinformation have played post Oct 7, 2023 -- and continue to play through the present day, in manufacturing consent for Israel's war on Gaza as well as its wider military campaigns and territorial expansion in Lebanon and Syria. The conversation centered on Dr. Rad's article, "How Western Media Has Manufactured Consent for Atrocities", From Iraq to Gaza ( published by DAWN on 3/4/25); and Professor Jones's peer-reviewed analysis in Third World Quarterly, "Evidencing alethocide: Israel's war on truth in Gaza" (published 3/1/25).

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit zeteo.comDonald Trump's “dictator for a day” promise is seemingly stretching in to weeks, with each one feeling like an eternity. Meanwhile, leaders and parties across Europe are applying their own versions of MAGA at home. With the world in such a bitter spot, Mehdi and Owen Jones have no plans to sugarcoat our new reality in this latest episode of ‘Two Outspoken', filmed last week in London.Since taking over Twitter, Elon Musk weaponized the social platform in ways that make the truth debatable, facts irrelevant, and honesty a mirage. The tech billionaire's so-called Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), which he leads, was recently granted access to a federal system responsible for $6 trillion in annual payments, and with it, the private information of millions of Americans.“It is a complete coup because these people [DOGE] are not elected. They now have control of data. They have control of money… He's [Musk] just sitting on Twitter, just unilaterally chatting to his rightwing fans going ‘What should I cancel next? What should I stop payments to?' Sorry, Who the f*ck are you?” Mehdi asks (to which Musk would likely answer with “I'm dark MAGA,” but that's just our guess!)The two also discuss “Trumpism” and its different mutations across Europe, where Owen argues that “what Trumpism offers is a coherent vision, whether we like it or not.”“People concluded democracy doesn't deliver the goods… and unless you have something else which explains, no, don't blame the fact that you've got freedom and you're able to decide who rules over you, blame the fact you've got a system which is very good for those who make money but actually is rigged against your interests… then you get the way for a right wing authoritarian takeover. And that is what is happening,” Owen explains.Mehdi and Owen discuss the rise of the right everywhere from the US to the UK to Germany, while paying special attention to the failures of Keir Starmer's Labour government in the UK.Also, as you'll see in the show — Mehdi and Owen are sporting our brand new Zeteo merch!

Grappling Rewind: Breakdowns of Professional BJJ and Grappling Events
This week on the show Maine and Corey recap Dante Leon vs Tommy Langaker at ONE Championship. We talk about this rematch with the first match coming in 2018, and how close the match was. We also talk a little about the frontrunners at this years 2025 IBJJF Euros. Plus who Keith Krikorian should face to defend his Polaris -66 Kg title, Ash Williams or Owen Jones. Recorded 1-12-2025
British journalist Owen Jones joins us to help make sense of what Elon is up to in Britain, whether his boost of the far right Reform Party will prove successful, and what to make of his falling out with Nigel Farage.
Today we share a number of voices from a number of sources to give you a foundation on what is happening and what might be happening around Trump/Putin, Ukraine/Russia, Turkey/Syria, Turkey/Israel, US/Turkey/Israel, and more. We include clips from Owen Jones with Ilan Pappe, Judge Napolitano, and Alistair Crooke, as well as clips from the International Peace Coalition Helga Zepp-Larouch, Ray McGovern, and Larry Johnson. Then we finish up with Anything Goes, which is sung by Ella Fitzgerald.

Reporting by Owen Jones reveals that many within the BBC do not view the organisation's coverage of Israel as impartial. Plus: An interview with hunger striker Laila Soueif. With Michael Walker and Aaron Bastani.
This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit zeteo.comSyria is carving a new path forward after the overthrow of Bashar al-Assad. While the country's future remains uncertain, Mehdi Hasan and Owen Jones have a brutally honest and outspoken conversation in London about how the Western Left has reacted to the fall of the Assad regime.“Yes, Israel may benefit from the fall of Assad,” Mehdi argues, “And yes, the United States did want Assad to fall and spent millions of dollars. But so did Syrian people. And we shouldn't strip them of their agency and their desires.”Owen adds, “It is important that we, on the Left, keep our house in order, and we have a universal, emancipatory project which is about freeing people from all forms of oppression, violence, wherever that comes from. You know, the United States of America, they pick and choose. It's what they did with Saddam Hussein for a long time … It's Orwellian.”The two also unpack the double standards when it comes to Syria and Palestine. “On the pro-Palestine side, you have some people who are pro-Palestinian, anti-Israel … But then when it comes to Syria, they're pro-Assad, which I find inconsistent morally and politically,” Mehdi says, pointing out that Western powers do the reverse — backing an al-Qaeda offshoot in Syria, Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS), while obsessing over Hamas in Gaza.As Syria begins to rebuild after Assad, Owen emphasizes the importance of anti-imperialism: “We need an anti imperialism, which is also about consistent liberation and not dictatorship, because the point with Assad is he used that rhetoric for legitimacy rather than actually practical help for the Palestinians.”Watch the full show above to hear Mehdi and Owen get into this lively, impassioned, and timely discussion, including on Israel's seizure of Syrian land — they don't hold back!

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit zeteo.comWhat on earth happened on Tuesday? In the latest episode of ‘Two Outspoken,' filmed in Washington DC, Mehdi and Owen sit down together and find plenty to both agree and disagree about, from the role of the economy in the Dems' landslide defeat, to the impact of misinformation and media bias. Their wide-ranging and thought-provoking conversation comes on the heels of a headline-grabbing statement from Senator Bernie Sanders accusing the Democrats of abandoning the working class.“The real hourly wages of most American workers are the same as they were when Richard Nixon was in the White House half a century ago. Yeah, that has political consequences,” Owen argues, agreeing with Sanders.Mehdi pushes back, arguing that there were other factors at play.“It depends where you start the clock. If you start the clock in September 2020 and compare it to September 2024, real wages are up… Don't forget there was a pandemic and the pandemic actually messed up all the numbers.”The pair also discuss Harris' failure to offer an ambitious economic agenda to the American people; the anti-incumbency effect both in the United States and across the post-pandemic democratic world; and the power of right-wing messaging and - let's be honest - propaganda. “The problem is a lot of Americans don't have a clue what the Democrats actually did for them,” Mehdi says. “See, Trump is a master of doing very little but exaggerating the s**t out of it.”Adversarial till the end, Mehdi even proposes a sportsman's bet with Owen about what might happen on January 20th, 2025 when it comes to Trump voters and their attitude towards the economy. Stick around to the end of the show to see what the bet is - and whether Owen accepts. Watch the full ‘Two Outspoken' episode above and let us know what you think in the comments!

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit zeteo.comIn the latest episode of ‘Two Outspoken', Mehdi and Owen get outraged about the lack of outrage in the US and UK in the wake of Israel's ongoing aerial bombardment in Lebanon, attacks that have killed hundreds of civilians, with many calling it the deadliest week in the country in decades. (This conversation was recorded just before Israel announced it was also preparing for a ground invasion of Lebanon as well.)The normalization of these tragedies raises serious questions about the value placed on Arab lives. Drawing parallels to past conflicts, they shed light on the systematic indifference shown by governments and media alike, as the specter of genocide looms large. Will Israel repeat in Lebanon what it has done in Gaza?SUBSCRIBE TO ZETEO TO SUPPORT INDEPENDENT AND UNFILTERED JOURNALISM:https://zeteo.com/subscribeWATCH ‘TWO OUTSPOKEN' ON SUBSTACK:https://zeteo.com/s/twooutspokenFIND ZETEO:Twitter: https://twitter.com/zeteo_newsInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/zeteonewsTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@zeteonewsFIND OWEN:Twitter: https://x.com/OwenJones84Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/owenjones84/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@OwenJonesTalksFIND MEHDI:Substack: https://substack.com/@mehdirhasanTwitter: https://twitter.com/@mehdirhasanInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/@mehdirhasanTik Tok: https://www.tiktok.com/@mehdirhasan‘Two Outspoken' is a US-UK political conversation between two friends on the left, Owen Jones and Mehdi Hasan.
Boris Johnson has been churning out his Daily Mail opinion pieces again, but this week the bloviating bell was even lazier than usual when we learnt he couldn't even be bothered to research the Bridget Jones plot line before putting out his casually sexist guff.Then it's onto the ongoing Labour and Starmer drama which shows no signs of quelling. Jemma and Marina discuss the lazy comparison with the Tories, the disagreement with Owen Jones and the double standards of the media - but sadly arrive at the conclusion that there are some Labour stories emerging that are far more than serious than just bad optics. Then it's onto BBC Laura K who it seems is looking forward to her romantic date/interview with Boris Johnson - and appears is the only one left who gives a toss what he has to sayThen it's onto the no-class-act, Kemi Badenoch, who this week displayed she knowns even less about anything than we thought she knew before, when she appeared to suggest her class status changed after a shift working at McDonalds. All finished off with the most cathartic of puddings, that may well have granted James O'Brien official national treasure status.Thank you for sharing and do tweet us @MarinaPurkiss @jemmaforte @TheTrawlPodcastPatreonhttps://patreon.com/TheTrawlPodcastYoutubehttps://www.youtube.com/@TheTrawlTwitterhttps://twitter.com/TheTrawlPodcastCreated and Produced by Jemma Forte & Marina PurkissEdited by Max Carrey
In this episode, produced in collaboration with the Qatar Foundation, Marc Owen Jones — Associate Professor of Media Analytics at Northwestern University Qatar — talks to us about this age of disinformation and how it manifests in the context of the Middle East. We discuss regulating social media platforms and try to understand what exactly disinformation is and where it came from. Touching on significant socio-political events such as the Arab uprisings of 2011, Professor Owen Jones reflects on the unique role that social media plays in the region. Referencing the dangers posed by monopolized social media platforms and data colonialism, we also talk about how the news industry is changing and what this means for historical records. Finally, the conversation moves to young people today and how they grapple with Ai, disinformation, false and new narratives, and orientalist perceptions of the Arab world.Marc Owen Jones is Associate Professor of Media Analytics at Northwestern University Qatar. He is the author of Digital Authoritarianism in the Middle East: Deception, Disinformation and Social Media.Connect with Marc
I interviewed B-Team coach Dima Murovanni, who just coached finalists and winners for ADCC 2024 and Craig Jones Invitational. After the success (and some setbacks) B-Team experienced at these tournaments, I decided to learn more about him and how his coaching is helping change one of the biggest teams in professional grappling. We discuss Nicky Rodriguez's $1 million win, Jay Rodriguez's ADCC silver medal, the competitive fire of Owen Jones, Nicky Ryan's injury, B-Team's rivalry with New Wave, collegiate wrestlers going into jiu-jitsu instead of MMA and much more.
Does Elon Musk have too much power over how we communicate online? Is he using that power to fuel dangerous far-right conspiracies?This week on The Big Picture Podcast, we're joined by Marc Owen Jones, social media analyst, author and assistant professor at Northwestern University in Doha.Over the last few weeks, he's been documenting the Southport anti-immigrant riots across the UK, and the link between online misinformation and the real world violence it can cause.The riots, fueled by misinformation spread by online influencers like Tommy Robbinson, Andrew Tate and Nigel Farage, who initially blamed immigrants and Muslims for the attack, despite the suspect not belonging to either group.The UK government pinned much of the blame on X-owner and tech-mogul Elon Musk, who was seen to engage actively in the conversation, sharing far-right memes and conspiracy theories about a ‘two tier justice system' - accusing the British government of cracking down on free speech and being under the influence of Islamists.Musk, who bought X in 2022 under a mandate of “protecting free speech”, has increasingly been accused of turning the platform into an unmoderated, bot-filled conspiracy den, and that he himself has become one of its worst offenders.So are the accusations true?We'd love to hear your thoughts on this episode, and any guests you'd like us to have on our show.

And the Republicans go after Kamala's...laugh?!Kamala, Kahmaala, Kohmohla - Jemma and Marina open with a little lesson in how best to pronounce the name of the woman who is getting Republicans all hot under the collar over in the US.But first, domestic issues - with a focus on the Labour rebellion that saw seven Labour MPs lose the whip after voting against the Government in regards to the much loathed two-child benefit cap. Might this fallout not be as black and white as it first seemed? Owen Jones certainly didn't seem to think so...Then we cross state-side, where the VP-pick, JD Vance (or JD Sports as Jemma likes to call him as "he' a massive mug") has decided to insult swathes of the population by being insulting to "childless cat ladies". Then Jemma and Marina pour over our very own UK homegrown Trumpsters, like Russell Brand and Nigel Farage - thank goodness we have national treasures like Kathy Burke to tell it like it is!Thank you for sharing and do tweet us @MarinaPurkiss @jemmaforte @TheTrawlPodcastPatreonhttps://patreon.com/TheTrawlPodcastYoutubehttps://www.youtube.com/@TheTrawlTwitterhttps://twitter.com/TheTrawlPodcast
It's Hump Day! Sam and Emma speak with political commentator Owen Jones to discuss the outcomes of the recent UK elections. First, they run through updates on the increasing problem for Democrats that is Biden's white-knuckled-hold on his candidacy, Israel's genocide in Gaza, the corruption of Clarence Thomas, environmental emergency in the US, NATO's summit, the FTC, and the US' green transition, before touching on Nancy Pelosi's telling take on Biden's future. Owen Jones then joins, first contextualizing the (predictable) implosion of the Tories in the UK's recent elections within the long string of constant Conservative controversy (be it policy or personal) that has defined the British Prime Ministership during the post-Brexit Tory reign, before expanding on the expectations for this year's elections, with Labour's political strategy winning them a landslide majority despite just under 34% of the vote, a result somewhat overshadowed by the major success of Left alternatives (like the Green Party) and independents (like Jeremy Corbyn), as well as the takeoff of Nigel Farage of the hardline right Reform UK. Next, Jones steps back and parses through the role that the UK's first-past-the-post election system played in bolstering Labour's electoral win, and why the success of independent challengers is such an astonishing result, before expanding on the tension between Labour and the British left following the anti-Corbynist purge, as well as the role incoming PM Keir Starmer plays within that context. After unpacking the future of a ruling coalition in the UK, they wrap up the interview by unpacking the major disappointment of Brexit and the precarious nature of liberals' desire to return to “normalcy.” And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma discuss the Biden-Kamala ticket, unpack some hot takes from the media elite on Biden's candidacy, with additional (and somewhat less illuminating) commentary from Dave Rubin and Dennis Prager. The MR team also discusses the RNC's ongoing attempt to moderate Trump, Josh from Chicago and TLW from Pakistan touch on the British elections, Matt Miller tries to get the Biden Administration back on track (spreading lies about Gaza), and Bryce from Alabama on the immediate future of Biden's presidency, plus, your calls and IMs!

What a week! Trump is guilty, Farage is milkshaked, Owen Jones is Owen Jones-ing and some of the four horses of the apocalypse are having a nice time in a field. At least concrete is still concrete. Mickey and Hannah manage to fit all this in and still find time for a horrific sexism of the week, in which we get to see how one judge's mind works and really don't like it.

It's Casual Friday! Emma speaks with political commentator Owen Jones to round up the week in news. Then she speaks with comedian Kate Willett! First, Emma runs through updates on the brutal assault on Emory students and faculty protesting genocide and cop-city by the Atlanta police, mass arrests of anti-war protesters on college campuses across the US, Israel's imminent invasion of Rafah, US troops' presence in Chad, Trump's legal woes, Net Neutrality, the climate crisis, and new anti-trans legislation out of Tennessee, before parsing through some rather telling comments from the ongoing Supreme Court case about Trump's potential immunity as President, with representation going as far as to make space for immunity over extra-judicial assassinations. Owen Jones then joins, as he and Emma reflect on the last seven months of constant scenes of devastation and genocide coming out of Gaza, and the mainstream media's heart-wrenching insistence on downplaying the horror, denying the deaths, and running cover for Israel's project of ethnic cleansing under the guise of victimhood. Expanding on this, Jones and Emma explore how the severe repression and propaganda from mainstream Western political institutions is seeing an en-masse public awakening to the genocide of Gaza, and the Western elites' violent commitment to controlling the discourse, with supposed “liberal democracies” from the US to the EU and UK defaming anti-zionist Jews and anti-semites and uplifting actual racists and Jew-haters as legitimate actors. After parsing through the absurdity of the media's insistence on ignoring the obvious rhetoric and policy that has shaped Israel's approach to this entire war, Owen steps back to look to the role of the UK in particular, with the Labor Party's step back from the coalition of Jeremy Corbin at the end of the last decade, and committing itself fully to Israel's agenda of dehumanization and hasbara. Wrapping up, Jones walks Emma through the performative cruelty of the UK's Tory government's ongoing illegal and immoral deportation scheme for asylum seekers. Kate Willet also joins, as she and Emma discuss the repression of left-wing beliefs in the supposedly “liberal” entertainment industry, and the growing trend of the industry's support for right-wing reactionary comics. Kate and the MR Team explore the attempt to present left-wing comedy as hyper-politicized and right-wing comedy as almost de-politicized, before wrapping up by touching on the difficulty of escaping the self-censorship pushed on women and lefties when it comes to speaking out about politics. And in the Fun Half: Emma previews new allegations about Kristi Noam's killer personality, watch Briahna Joy Gray refuse to back down from Rising Co-Host Robby Soave's fascist criticism of student protests, reflects on the greater failure of the US media amid this crackdown on free speech, and listen to Donald Trump attempt to frame these non-violent protests as worse than Charlottesville. Shawn Hannity's Blonde and blue-eyed guest waxes about the severity of the ongoing “illegal occupation” of Pal– I mean– of college campuses by students who pay tuition to be there, and the MR Crew discusses the media's reproduction of genocidal propaganda, plus, your calls and IMs!

The Labour Party is en route to form the next government of the United Kingdom with what most analysts describe as a landslide majority. The Conservatives have resided over a failed government, with Brexit, economic crisis and poor public services now associated with the Rishi Sunak's lacklustre government. Labour's leader, Keir Starmer is comfortably ahead in the polls and it is now openly stated that the tories may be out of government for a generation.Yet on Gaza, Labour policy has been horrendous. It has given a green light to Israel from the very start of its genocidal campaign, with its frontbenchers including David Lammy, Wes Streeting, Emily Thornberry and Lisa Nandy making it very clear that they supported a siege of Gaza or the absolute right of Israel to self defence. Labour continued this position despite the carnage and despite the interim judgement by the ICJ that clearly stated Israel was committing a plausible genocide.I have visited many Muslim communities in towns and cities across the UK and it is clear to me that our anger is palpable. There is a consensus forming that we can no longer vote for a party that has given the green light to killing on an industrial scale. To help us make a case against Labour, I have the pleasure today to speak to probably someone who is the most qualified to discuss the party, journalist and commentator Owen Jones. Owen has been a principled campaigner for Gaza and recently made the unprecedented move to leave Labour. He now calls for an alliance of independents and progressives.Owen Jones is a Guardian columnist and the author of a number of book including The Establishment – And How They Get Away With ItJoin our Patreon to get access to exclusive monthly Zoom calls: / thethinkingmuslim You can also support The Thinking Muslim through a one-time donation: https://www.thinkingmuslim.com/DonateSign up to Muhammad Jalal's newsletter: https://jalalayn.substack.comPurchase our Thinking Muslim mug: https://www.thinkingmuslim.com/merch Hosted on Acast.
