This is what's wrong with the news these days.

While Rupert Murdoch is certainly no friend of mine, or of the working class in general, it is a great oversimplification to blame the problems of the media on a single individual.

Here in Australia, Rupert Murdoch IS the media. Which is why you have front page articles in national newspapers that are [his] opinion pieces.

What does Murdoch think about your new prime minister?

I'm not sure. I don't actually read/watch any media over here in general. I just saw some of the pre-election newspapers because they were everywhere.

I actually know little of the politics here. I'm not a citizen so am unable to vote.

My apologies...now that I remember...where you from New Zealand?

What I heard about is that this new prime minister is pretty right wing so I guess Murdoch would support him.
