The ABC finally announced the cancellation of Q+A on 10 June 2025.[2]
Notable Episodes
23 February 2015
This episode was on family violence a term increasingly used over domestic violence by feminists. Representatives of Men's Rights Australia assisted in drafting two questions for this episode. Both were submitted and both were rejected. One man was permitted to ask a question about violence against men briefly towards the end of the episode however the discussion quickly returned to women.
4 November 2019
Mona Eltahawy appeared on Q&A on November 4, 2019 which was held in conjunction with the feminist Broadside conference. The panel for this episode of Q&A was made up entirely of feminists who were speaking at the conference.[3] During the episode, Eltahawy endorsed violence against men. Nayuka Gorrie advocated for the complete abolition of police, a position which was endorsed by Eltahawy. Many viewers were shocked while MRAs generally regarded this behaviour as typical of modern feminism.
The episode was subsequently taken down by the Australian Broadcasting Corporation although it remains widely available online including on Eltahawy's Youtube channel.
