Senator Jane Hume

On the episode of Insiders broadcast on 9 November 2025, an image of Senator Jane Hume holding up a front page of a newspaper was featured in the programs opening montage. The original front page, which was not include in the montage, featured an image of the Prime Minister Anthony Albanese alongside the headline “Life will be cheaper under me.”

In an attempt to be satirical, the image was changed so that a photograph of three of Senator Hume’s Coalition colleagues was superimposed onto the newspapers front page. The change was made in the edit process to accompany a line of voice over which stated that the Coalition had “made itself the story again.” Insiders acknowledges that, while the montage was attempting to be humorous, changing the image in this way was misleading and inaccurate and has apologised to Senator Hume. All versions of the program have since been re-edited to remove the altered image.
