@bhflowers I don't think news corp has many readers. The issue is a lot of the free to air tv stations only report whatever is in the news papers and new corp is the majority of new papers.
@FpsTroy the Sky youtube channel does the real damage, especially in the regions... people watch it thinking it's a legitimate news channel like PBS or DW... nothing could be further from the truth
@bhflowers sky News is free to air in the regions now that is doing some damage.
