As of 2024, approx 7.3 mill Australians, about 27% of the national population, live in rural and remote areas. incl people residing in Inner & Outer regional, Remote, and Very remote areas, as defined by the ABS and the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare. Still not the 9 mill she claims.

Careful, this whataboutism is how America finished up with Trump. Media manipulation has been a pillar of the rights strategy for decades, with Murdoch at the helm. Even Rinehart had a crack at media ownership but was blocked by Labor.

Wouldn't it be refreshing for the Government to get airtime to talk about their policies without 'Peter Dutton said...'?

What rubbish. Every announcement Labor made over the last three years was relegated to a footnote over preference for 'Peter Dutton said...'

I beg to differ. The Labor win is an achievent of historic significance.
Perhaps now the Labor govt will get airtime to talk up their achievements, of which there have been numerous, instead of fighting the media to have their voice heard over the negativity that was Duttons opposition. #auspol

The ABC's reality is they exist through continuing support of the Labor Party, not the Liberals they kowtow to on the daily. This 'equal airtime' garbage is reputation damaging.

I think what is happening is truly devastating and agree it is genocide. I truly do not understand why there is so much angst at our PM though. Honestly, WTAF can he do? Rant, sanctions, expel nationals? It will make zero difference. Just look at Russia.

Honestly, why does the Australian PM have to be punished for what a recalcitrant government has done? Israel won't listen to the US but for some odd reason you think Australia can influence a different outcome. I truly do not understand.
