First Brazil, then Canada, now Australia. (Maybe Poland as well.)
Another thing is, Australia is the original home of Rupert Murdoch. If
you think of the stranglehold on public opinion that Fox News and its newspaper stablemates enjoy in the US, think of what it used to be
like in Australia, with Sky News et al.
Only this seems to have been weakening lately. The sign of this was
the election of Albanese and Labor for their first term. And their
reelection can be seen as confirmation, of course, no thanks to the increasingly erratic actions of the Orange One himself.
