Queerphobia in Indonesia's Newsrooms - a podcast by New Naratif

In general, the national media in Indonesia either ignores LGBTQ+ issues or does not cover them at all. Otherwise, when they publish such content, they are blatantly reflecting hate and discrimination through the language, choice of sources, and use of news frames. In this episode, Bonnibel Rambatan and Widia Primastika will talk about the queerphobia media ecosystem in Indonesia, policies that forbid publishing news on LGBTQIA+, and where do journalist queer peoples stand. Previously, we also published Tika's article titled "Queerphobia in the Newsroom: Beyond the News on LGBTQIA+" as one of our Media Freedom Voices publication.
