An ABC national forum explored how media frames migration across the news cycle. One Nation has suggested cutting migration by 750,000 places over three years. Senator Barnaby Joyce backed the plan and played down warnings of economic harm. He said the concerns were blown out of proportion.
Separately, MP Andrew Hastie said Joyce offered an apology to him after a public insult. Hastie acknowledged the apology. The forum also considered how language and labels can shape public views toward migration.
