The CIA leaning on foreign governments to smooth the path for American corporate interests? Goodness me, what a shocking and entirely unheard of suggestion. I am quite sure such things never happen.

Two decades ago this book opened my eyes to how American power really works in the world. Once you see it, you cannot unsee it

It is worth remembering how fiercely the Murdoch press lined up against Whitlam in the lead up to the dismissal and how reliably it has backed the fossil fuel aligned lnp ever since. The coverage was never neutral and it has shaped decades of public opinion.
The small consolation is that Murdochs outlets now speak mainly to the older crowd. Younger Australians are tuning out entirely, choosing independent and digital sources instead. They are the one bright sign that a better future is still possible here.

@mojo @luciedigitalni @Old_IT_geek Mudoch is likely indirectly responsible for more deaths than Hitler and Stalin combined.
