From Alan Jones to the Daily Mail: the Australian media's bizarre reactions to the climate strike

Jones cited Joseph Goebbels while the Mail found a child who said they just wanted the day off school

The Daily Mail found a child at the climate strike who said they just wanted the day off school and Alan Jones quoted Joseph Goebbels. Those were just some of the more bizarre takes on the climate strike from sections of the media on Friday.

Hundreds of thousands of people rallied across Australia in what were overwhelmingly peaceful events but on Sydney's most popular breakfast program Jones interviewed climate sceptics and claimed school children were being brainwashed by adults with a political agenda.
