Rupert Murdoch is at it again... using his extensive media to influence an election - this time the Federal Election in Australia

Here are 2 stories, from 2 different news organisations, about the same thing - the appearance at the annual BluesFest in Byron Bay, of the Federal Opposition Leader & head of the Labor Party, Anthony Albanese - known in typical Australian fashion as 'Albo' (Look, it's just an Australian thing - we call our Prime Minister ScoMo - when we're not calling him a variety of other names)

This, from the usually politically neutral Sydney Morning Herald

Albo gets a rock star reception at Bluesfest

You can tell the Herald's pretty neutral - both sides of politics complain about it

And now, over to Rupert's mouthpiece news.com.au

Albanese greeted with deafening boos at Bluesfest

So, what kind of rock star reception did 'Albo' get? The kind you'd hear for Bruce Springsteen? Or the kind you'd expect to hear for Gary Glitter?

Well, which kind of Prime Minister would Rupert want? The kind that doesn't tax the rich enough & believes a vital part of free enterprise is encouraging monopolies? Or the leader of the traditionally worker/working class-friendly Labor Party? See the recent British elections for your answer... & RM's methods of shoring up the teetering Conservative Party by any means necessary & available...
