Monopoly Men
The colonialists are still in charge of the residents of this (penal) colony.
Australians live under a false presumption that they live in a democracy, where a totalitarian state is the order of the business day.
With one of the more important aspects of penal colony policies being in place is the flow of information, which now it’s more important than ever.
The narrative that is ‘advertised’ to the masses must be strictly controlled and what better way to do it than with only a few in charge of it.
They hide under not-for-profit organisations or charities/trusts.
Their narrative is strictly controlled and must be regurgitated by the over 400 media outlets across the colony called Australia.
Australian ‘consumers’ or subscribers of news or rather entertainment conglomerates that supply so called ‘news’ believe that they have a choice from different sources or that even there is ‘opposition’ where in fact it’s controlled opposition.

- Why the same journalist byline appears across multiple outlets
- How this affects media diversity and public trust
- Whether “fact-checking” is really as objective as it sounds
