The Sun

With alll eyes peeled to Trump and Brexit in the fracturing of western democracy, should they instead be focused on Murdoch?

January 15, 2019 By Bill Adams

Kevin Rudd astutely writes in the Sydney Morning Herald:
In Australia, as in the US and the UK, the Murdoch media don’t behave as a news organisation, but as a political party in full pursuit of their commerical and hard-right ideological interests in coalition with the major conservative party of the day. That’s why the Murdoch media has become such a cancer on the wider cause of democracy. We often ponder why democracy has been in such a mess across the Anglosphere. While Murdoch cannot be blamed for the lot, he’s been a big part of the equation. By contrast, the Canadian democracy has been in reasonable shape. Interesting that there is negligible Murdoch presence there.”
