The fact people believe this sort of stuff should make it clear exactly who has the power in Australian media and who is feeding propaganda to whom.

Just the facts on the matter:

Murdoch owns zero (yes zero) of the 5 major public TV channels and 23% of newspapers in Australia. Hardly a monopoly.

The truth behind the matter is that Australian's elites are constantly trying to force their point of view on to the Australian people by my monopolizing all the public channels, and using government money to push out private organization. Unfortunately for them, no one is interested in listening to them. Instead of admitting they are out of touch and that their ideas are not based in reality, they make these crazy claims that the whole country is under some kind of magic spell cast by Rupert Murdoch which makes it impossible for them to hear anything but those 23% of Newspapers that Murdoch owns.
