well they've been systematically lying about science for months, lol

but yeah your thinking leads to the sort of stupidity where you'd reckon a government trying to stop a corporation pumping toxic waste into a river is worse than the actual pumping because it VIOLATES THEIR PROPERTY RIGHTS

also it's interesting that you could argue at the moment that the government helps enforce their near-monopoly

yeah ok that was probably a stupid thing to say

I have to say though that I wouldn't agree with any outcome of an enquiry where they forced someone to e.g. close a newspaper

Well hold on, some members of the Murdoch press have been lying about the science, Malcolm Farr and George Megolagenis for example are both employed by News ltd and they quite obvious proponents of the climate science.

More than half of Australians believe that Rupert Murdoch’s 70% monopoly share of the Australian newspaper market is too high and that News Ltd’s Australian media ownership should be significantly reduced

I guess you could say it was... democratic
Murdoch are both protected and coddled by foreign ownership laws you dunce

remove those retarded laws and the problems are solved. OH NO I'M READING FOREIGN WEBSITES AND AL JAZEERA FOR MY NEWS THIS MEANS BAD

Switzer is a member of the Liberal Party and applied for preselection for both Cook and Bradfield and said he was going to nominate for Wentworth before Turnbull took back his retirement. Noni was the only unaligned person on tonight. Also I was there, and made a jocular tweet about missing out on the biscuits before hand and then the shows executive producer brought me a small piece of cake during the warm up.

>anyone who criticizes murdoch or suggests that them owning 70% of the media isn't the best thing MUST be calling for extreme leftist censorship and trying to vilify murdoch oh and they're probably anti-semitic too
>people in power (he was referring to the government) are paranoid that everyone's out to get them

now I'm not saying he's a trolling hypocrite. But the ABC should be commended for managing to find & import a right wing hack more ridiculous than the ones we already have here
