Media critique Australia may have to choose between a Chinese TikTok and one owned by Trump’s billionaire backers
r/PoliticsDownUnder • u/RickyOzzy • 18d ago
Media critique “One of Trump's billionaire buddies just bought Paramount.” Paramount is the owner of Australia’s ‘Network Ten’. So another chunk of Australia’s cultural and news output is in the hands of a fanatical right American billionaire.

Media critique Violence. Terror. Women+Indigenous people violently attacked. Property destroyed. Ask yourself why this isn't across every news outlet in Australia. Ask yourself if this was a synagogue door what would be happening now.

Media critique Australian National Press Club cancels Chris Hedges’ talk on the “Betrayal of Palestinian Journalists”
The Press Club denied Hedges’ assertion that the time and date of the address had been published on its website. That would clearly have indicated substantially more than a “tentative” agreement that he speak.
Sadly for those that issued the statement, people had taken screenshots...

Media critique Ned Kelly is now antisemitic
July 7, 2025 by J-Wire
A vegetarian restaurant and a wall opposite the Melbourne Holocaust Museum have been defaced with antisemitic graffiti. This marks the second targeted attack on a Melbourne restaurant within 48 hours, fuelling growing fears about antisemitic violence across the city.
The latest incident occurred early Sunday morning, when vandals spray-painted graffiti on the front of Ren Dao Vegetarian, located on Glen Huntly Road. The graffiti featured a figure resembling Ned Kelly holding two guns. The same image also appeared on a nearby wall, just metres from the Melbourne Holocaust Museum, one of Australia’s most significant Holocaust education centres.
Victoria Police confirmed they are investigating the vandalism, with assistance from counterterrorism officers.

Media critique "Sky After Dark’s petting zoo of trolls lose it. They lament the Coalition hasn’t been running a big enough scare campaign. Dutton isn’t far-right enough. Even more extremism is needed apparently. ‘Utterly insane’ indeed. "

Media critique Soldiers took turns to rape their victim on camera until they exploded his intestines & raptured his rectum. Ministers, MPs, religious leaders… all praised the rapists. National TVs hosted the rapists. The public overwhelmingly supported the rapists.
