MODERATORS
I don't think it necessarily is.
Many independent publications cannot keep up with the amount published by the ABC and the Guardian. After those two the rest of the major media landscape in Australia quickly becomes centrist/right-wing from Nine's offerings to Murdoch's.
Do you have other suggested sources?
All sources...
Sounds like you only want to read leftist opinions, and centrist and right are not allowed in here?
Can you not share articles? It's an open forum, share whatever is relevant and interesting.
That wasn't my question. But I think I got the answer now, "Most posters are left leaning."
Easy.
The Fediverse attracts Left-Leaning contributors because the commercial microblogging platforms aren’t appealing to them. The commercial microblogging platforms (by definition) appeal to those who are right-wing. Now that the two biggest microblogging platforms are owned by either venture capitalists or capitalist puppets.
But before when it wasn't it was left leaning or no? (Twitter)
To U.S. Americans, anything to the left of fascism is “Left Leaning”.
Twitter had the appearance of being Left Leaning to the ignorant masses mainly because it was funded by Venture Capital.
When it matured and had to provide ROI, it became much more Right-Wing overnight. The oppression of 3rd Party Apps was the beginning of the end (even though Twitter wouldn’t have been what it was without Twitteriffic).
Question was already answered, see above. Obsequious for obsequious sake.
I don't mind reading crap. I just choose not to share it. Feel free to post whatever you want so long as it doesn't break any community rules I guess.
There are also some independent media articles posted like michaelwest.
Everything else in Australia is owned by Rupert Murdoch. There is no good media, just vomitted hatred and lies.
The guardian at least mostly sticks to the realm of facts.
