Federal govt licences operation of media organisations & has power to revoke them where a licensee does not act in the public interest.
Murdoch, and his fetid News Corp, is a serial abuser of its obligation to objectively act in the public interest.

If the US does attack Greenland we’ll find out exactly what kind of federal government we have.

Australia presides over a trove of crown resources the world needs.
Rather than subcontracting extraction & sale, we gift this lucrative earner to a cabal of tax minimising multi nationals & high net worth individuals…for a pittance.
It’s the price we pay for lazy, incompetent politicians

Australian ABC News report today:
Muslim leader and wife allegedly abused, assaulted in Melbourne.

Strange. I don't remember seeing the word "allegedly" used in any ABC News reports regarding antisemitic attacks. 🤔 #auspol #Islamophobia ##journalism

Four in five Australians want a bill of rights — what could it look like? Australia is the only Western liberal democracy without a legislated human rights act. Why is that? And what would change if it had one?

Danish PM says Greenland feud at 'decisive moment' after new Trump threats Donald Trump says controlling Greenland is crucial for US national security and he has suggested using force to seize the Arctic territory.

Australia needs to voice our support for Denmark. We share values with Denmark.

The phrasing is problematic. A report may say "police allege"; not that the event itself "allegedly" occurred. Word choice and phrasing matters for what's implied. #auspol #Islamophobia ##journalism

Our ABC calling it the “Greenland feud”, because, well apparently because they’ve employed “journalists” who don’t know what words mean and don’t bother to find out.

America is at a cross road. If Renee Nicole Good’s cold blooded unprovoked murder goes unpunished, America is officially lawless. The murderer Jonathan Ross is the symbol of Trump’s America - violent, unhinged, without empathy or compassion, and without consequences. American justice is dead.
