PM says government trying to stop 'abhorrent' US execution live stream
Anthony Albanese says the government is doing "whatever it can" to prevent a live stream of an execution in the US from being viewed in Australia.
He says social media platforms have a "social responsibility" to do the right thing and not broadcast the execution.
US President Donald Trump is yet to make the ultimate call about the December 3 execution.
Prime Minister Anthony Albanese says his government will do everything it can to stop the "abhorrent" live stream of a firing squad execution in the United States from being shown in Australia.
Last week US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said the execution of Nidal Malik Hasan, convicted of killing 13 people at a military base in Texas in 2009, would be available for the public to watch, but Vice-President JD Vance cast doubt about whether that would occur.

Australia’s online safety regulator has a few levers to limit the public seeing the US’s planned live stream of an execution but history suggests it will lead to a very public fight.
The US defense secretary, Pete Hegseth, announced last week the planned execution of Fort Hood shooter Nidal Hasan would be livestreamed when the military execution is carried out in early December.
The Greens have called on the eSafety commissioner, Julie Inman Grant, and the Albanese government to ensure that the event – if it goes ahead and is livestreamed – is not seen by Australians on TV or their devices.
