Antony Loewenstein
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Antony Loewenstein is a Jewish-Australian, Sydney-based freelance journalist, author and blogger. He is prominent within the Jewish community for controversial leftwing views, which have led to his denunciation as a "self-hating Jew".
Antony Loewenstein has written for the Sydney Morning Herald, The Australian, Sydney’s Sun-Herald, The Bulletin, Znet, The Big Issue, Crikey, Counterpunch and many others. Antony contributed a major chapter to 2004’s best-seller, Not Happy, John! on the controversy over the awarding of the Sydney Peace Prize to Hanan Ashrawi. His widely-criticised book on the Israel/Palestine conflict, My Israel Question, was published in 2006. Random House will publish his next book, on the Australian media, in 2007.
He writes a regular column for online magazine New Matilda and is a board member of Macquarie University’s Centre for Middle East and North African Studies. Antony appears regularly on radio, in public and at universities discussing current affairs and politics.
