When Fox Spews was sued and lost, they admitted they weren't a news organisation but rather provided "entertainment". After paying $787 million they continued as usual. MSM is the biggest threat to Australia's democracy.

People need to understand that Murdoch's News Corporation is not actually a news organisation.

It's a political organisation.

So its aim is not telling the truth. Its aim is to change how people vote, and influence elections.

20+ hate groups as at 2022 - and growing...

"The authors further note that the list, and the accompanying descriptions of each of the twenty hate groups, is far from exhaustive, adding that both local and international neo-Nazi and racist skinhead groups have long had a presence in this country."
