It is worth remembering how fiercely the Murdoch press lined up against Whitlam in the lead up to the dismissal and how reliably it has backed the fossil fuel aligned lnp ever since. The coverage was never neutral and it has shaped decades of public opinion.
The small consolation is that Murdochs outlets now speak mainly to the older crowd. Younger Australians are tuning out entirely, choosing independent and digital sources instead. They are the one bright sign that a better future is still possible here.
