Come on, guys. The Secretary of Defense is from Fox News. Trump is surrounded by Fox News loudmouthed know-nothings. What more would you have Rupert Murdoch do - exchange brains with him?

For the first time, more Australians are getting their news from social media than traditional sources. The younger generation isn’t falling for Murdoch’s spin — they’re better educated, digitally savvy, and see through the propaganda that still dupes much of the over-50s brigade.

Whatever happened to ‘Page 3’?

Murdoch’s press really regret its passing, but the Time is doing it’s best….

I have to confess it looks dodgy! Has Gwinnett been overdoing the gloop?

Vance meets w/ the Murdochs.

#FoxNews is the communications arm of the administration and broadcasts weaponized propaganda into the minds of millions of Americans creating dangerous unreality.

Rupert and Lachlan Murdoch are complicit in the actions of the Trump regime.

The story was broken by the @AssociatedPress an excellent source of global, national, local news.

"It dawned on me that the very thing that is causing the division in society is the very thing that could unite us."

co-founder @Caspar_Hughes talks about the failings in the media, his reasons for taking direct action - smashing News UK's windows - and why he won't do it again.

Protesters from Extinction Rebellion sit calmly outside News UK HQ in London, awaiting arrest on the hottest day on record, 2022 after smashing windows in peaceful direct action. The protesters have patches on their chests which say 'non violent'. Two windows of the glass front of the building are shattered. Spray paint stencils  "tell the truth" can be seen on the floor.

@InsurgoFormica Exactly! And don’t hold your breath for much negative coverage either — not when realestate.com.au is raking it in and the Murdoch-controlled media depends on property ads for their bread and butter. Too much money at stake to bite the hand that feeds them.

Where is the fact checking?? Hate our media

@calmeilles if anyone needed proof that the Times is leveraging ownership to sow institutional distrust, it headlined "BBC CLAIMS journalists and crew ‘tied up and held at gunpoint by ’" complete with inverted commas following the word "claims". You can see the hand of the editor in chief everywhere incl. the pasting of the outlandish claims from WhiteHouse press Sec.about which serves no other purpose than to undermine the report.

The Murdochs feud like petty royals, but their empire keeps poisoning democracy. Whether it’s Fox News radicalizing the US, Sky News fearmongering in the UK, or the Australian grinding axes here, their media machine exists to distort, divide, and entrench power.
And yet, as they bicker, the damage is done:

Televised debates are so ‘american’ and do not make or break an electoral campaign. That these had an impact, perhaps, maybe, but would that impact affect outcomes? Overall I think not, maybe in very marginal seats depending on the electorate demographics.

What caught my attention in this Conversation article was the ‘reach’ of the four television channel, and particularly that of SkyNews. Given all of the caveats the author explores in the piece these figures should be taken with a grain of salt and care exercised in the analysis. But, with these caveats and warning applicable to all the channels in the table equally, one can discern that SKyNews has had a very small reach compared to the others. This warms my heart because it points to the eventual demise of the #Murdoch media empire and its diminishing influence in Australian politics.

If people are allowed to have mandates in the same way as politicians claim them, then surely the people's loud demand of Labor is that they get rid of the Murdoch fascist gutter media in Australia. Now would be good. What further evidence could a reasonable person possibly need? #auspol #Murdoch

It is unbelievable that people in rural areas continue to support the #National Party, despite the party always supports the big mining companies at the expense of farmers. The National shows little regard for farmland and the environmental health essential for farming. :eyeroll: :eyeroll: :eyeroll:

Since #murdoch's #Skynews already said #Dutton's defeat was due to #LNP not using the Big Gun Barnaby Joyce during the campaign, a leadership #spill is unavoidable.
