A former culture editor from The Age and Sydney Morning Herald reveals how major Australian advertisers directly influence what you read. From theatre reviews decided by ad spend to Clive Palmer buying front-page space for lies - this is how your daily news gets bought and sold.
We used to have laws preventing media monopolies, but Murdoch, Nine, and Seven lobbied to kill those protections. Now three billionaire families control what 25 million Australians read, and gambling reform mysteriously stalls when ad money flows in. This isn't journalism - it's corporate propaganda, and it's exactly why young Australians have stopped trusting mainstream media.
