The Senate "inquisition" led by the brain dead SHY is a farce and the "findings" are probably already written. The attempted punishment for "bad news" or any news critical of the greens or Labor is yet another political posturing whose findings have zero impact and will be filed with all the other attempted witch-hunts.

What we are likely to see is SHY being shredded by Newscorp yet producing the expected outcome with zero evidence.

Foxy what twaddle.

The left whingers have the old Fairfax media, the guardian and the ABC which have far greater representation than Newscorp.

Shadow Minister,

Yes, but they at least do report evidence-based
facts not propaganda. Therein lies the difference.

Foxy,

At this point, it is unclear as to whether you are deliberately lying or just willfully ignorant.

Newscorp has an effective fact-checking mechanism with the result that there have been very few "facts" that they have published that have been successfully challenged which is certainly better than the ABC can claim.

That their editorials are slanted towards the conservative side of politics just as the ABC, Age, guardian are all slanted to the left side of politics is not in dispute.

I really don't get it.

The left already has the ABC, public funded, to promote the messages that leftist supporters tend to favour, through tv, radio and internet press.

The rest should be up to the private sector with all having an opportunity to form their own media options.

There are a whole lot of new players now, leaning most to the left.

In this world, there are doers and whingers.

Shadow Minister and Chris Lewis,

Get a grip on the issues involved and read the
following link:

http://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2019/may/09/for-30-years-i-worked-for-news-corp-papers-now-all-i-see-shameful-bias

Stop defending the undefensible - what used to be is no longer
what is now.
