Mainstream media - corporate connection, how deep is it? How wide spread is it?

As we know the media is responsible for people forming opinions of some people act on what the media tells them. Voting, who they associate with, what they put in their bodies, how they interact with friends etc., etc. are often due to what they read, see or hear. How much of a connection is there?

 

2 former PMs, Kevin Rudd, Malcolm Turnbull both foes of a sort worked together to highlight the monopoly on our media.

4 random clips, some with differing approaches and each one very interesting.

That last YouTube link is a doozy - it's got a whole 12 likes

 

And it's at least 12 years old.

Yep.  I like to see how old his links are.

 

He's scraping the bottom of the barrel by now.

 

Must be hard work for the poor blighter.

 

Yes, I said blighter.

I think you need to look up the meaning of the word "random".  You are not using it properly.  Did you miss school that day when the word “random” was taught in Science or English?

 

The links to the clips in your post are NOT random as they were curated by you.  

 

Four random clips would be something like these:

 

1 -     https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pOmu0LtcI6Y

 

2 -    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FHhZPp08s74

 

3 -   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y9Li-GtMmeM

 

4 -   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-uafSQf-0Kc

 

I know there are members who do not like to click on links, SO, I have put in the spoiler what these 4 truly random clips are about (no tricks, I promise 😃 )

 

Spoiler
1 - funny cat video
2 - Gloria Gaynor singing I will survive
3 - kids say funny things video
4 - Collingwood team song

From a Training and Education perspective, any information older than 5yrs, is void… worthless… should not be used as reference.

How Murdoch manipulates the climate of Australian politics

 

News Corp suddenly promoting climate change action is just another example of how Coalition governments and establishment media operate in tandem to create and control the political narrative.

Many are viewing this unexpected Murdoch media about-face on the subject of climate change with optimism and relief.

But for those of us who have been watching closely, it also seems possible, even likely, that this sudden awareness of climate change by News Corp signals a new and more sophisticated greenwashing of the political discourse.

….especially when MARKING student assessments, we have to confirm each and every reference given to ensure it is valid and current. 😊
