News Fighters is back with our annual wrap of everything absurd and predictable in Australian news, politics, and media. From stinky flowers to manufactured shirt controversies, from mushroom murders to Momdani and fake peace prizes, from ICE raids to algal blooms, from criminal heists to hijacker takedowns, and from net zero abandonment to election campaign backflips—2025 is a year of division and crime we can’t wait to forget.

Also Stefan Pazur looks at the year in showbiz, movies, TV and music.

News Fighters is a comedic look at Australian news, media and political hypocrisy from TV comedy editor & producer Dylan Behan (currently on hiatus).

News Fighters is still on hiatus but this week Dylan guest co-hosted an episode of The Chaser Report with Charles Firth and they looked back on a tumultuous knifing season for state opposition party leaders and the miraculous survivor no one expected: Sussan Ley!

Welcome to another pilot episode of the News Fighters Daily News Wrap where I recap the TV news bulletins so you don't have to buy a TV.

Today: Trump's Aussie promotion, Australia's ICE-like immigration raid & the ageist internet changes coming soon!

I knocked this news wrap out in less than four hours and would love to find a platform for this content. Interested? Hit me up: dylan@newsfighters.com.
