In case you missed Australia's two part documentary "Fox and the Big Lie" that concluded last night about Trump's election fraud claims and Fox's knowing collusion in promoting such as well as Sidney Powell and many others, this is a must see.

Both 45 minutes segments can be found in this article...

Sky News Australia is the equivalent of Fox News is the US. Both are owned by Rupert Murdoch and spew off the exact same propaganda BS.

Unlike either ot them, however, everything presented in the Four Corners documentary was 100% factually accurate and can be verfied by prior reporting on the matter globally and legal documents filed in court (all of which Trump and his allies lost except one minor case).

It's not hard to be considered a 'left wing journalist' in your worldview if you consider extreme RW propaganda entities like Fox, Newsmax, OAN, Breitbart, Sky, etc. to be delivering factual news.

They are all extreme right-wing. Fox used to be centre-right with reasonable reporting prior to Ailes being fired and Trump gaining the presidency. During the course of Trump's administration, however, they turned into a propaganda network for him advancing his blatant lies that could easily be disproven, starting on Day 1, falsely claiming his inauguration had the largest attendence in history. It went down hill from there, getting worse and worse, month after month.

Then came election night when Fox's political news desk (which was preeminent in their field for years in accurately assessing election winners) called Arizona for Biden. Trump was furious as it threw a major wrench into his narrative about winning the election by a landslide - when in actuality he'd already lost other swing states by that point - and accordingly sought revenge. He told his supporters Fox had basically betrayed him and they shouldn't trust them anymore. Instead, they should tune into Newsmax and OAN (who were more extreme in their sycophancy) instead, which they did by the hundreds of thousands. Fox panicked at their loss of viewers and doubled down, telling viewers what they wanted to hear rather than the truth, in order to win them back. They've been doing that ever since, which is why they're currently facing multiple billion dollar lawsuits against them as too are a number of their hosts.

FYI... this is actually a post script (aka as a 'PS') to my prior comment... the videos Fox, et al, produce to counter so called "lefties narratives" are ALWAYS edited to extract out any proper context in order to elicit maximum outrage from their viewers in order to keep them hooked on distorted (propaganda) information they're being fed.

Big business and politics operate along similar lines. Each have a product or message they're trying to sell to the public to maximize profits and/or power for themselves and use similar psychological tactics to manipulate others to achieve such. Both prey upon the insecurities and/or gullibility of others (consciously or otherwise) to make them believe that if only they buy a particular product or support a given political candidate their lives will be so much better.

As someone that actually possesses multiple post secondary educational credentials and has had direct professional experience operating in big business, legal and governmental entities, there's only one fact that remains consistent throughout all of them... you can't take anything anyone of them say at face value.

I never claimed to exclusively be able to suss out a network's intentions based solely on education and/or professional experiences alone, though it did become blatantly apparent at a very early stage the direction Fox was going in with each incremental step it was making on the reporthing they were doing.

You can actually credit former Fox insiders for confirming that which was previously identified and acknowledged by many individuals including those in journalism schools, media watch groups, law courts, etc, whose supplied sworn depositions, affidavits and/or videotaped interviews, including one of Murdoch's own sons - James - who resigned from the Board of Directors because he could no longer tolerate the blatant lies and propaganda it was spewing.

Of course, to know about such requires one needs to actually follow fact driven, non-partisan media outlets and legal actions before the courts because there's not a chance in hell Fox would ever disclose such to their viewers.

FYI... extreme left generally borders somewhere along the line of hippy ideology. Can't say that's ever interested me anymore than ever reading tabloid trash like the National Enquirer, which Fox has basically degenerated to over the past few years.

I only seem to be a know-it-all to you because I challenge your existing thoughts processes based on qualified prior education and experience. Don't ever ask me to wire a house, perform mechanical maintenace on a vehicle or engage in any surgical procedure, etc. I'd be the first one to admit I'm not qualified to ever address any of them, unlike Trump, who proclaims to be the master in absolutely everything.

Wrong, wrong and wrong but not surprised in the least you'd conclude such based upon prior interactions with you that demonstrated limited educational knowledge.

Got any proof this actually happened? Outside of your raging TDS delusions, I mean.

Proof of what? The documentary Australia produced, the interviews they conducted, or that Trump et als claims are fraudulent? The answer is yes, yes, and yes.

ABC is the equivalent of the BBC (British) and CBC (Canada), all of which are Crown corporations funded by the government to educate and inform the public on national and international events. Unlike US media broadcasters, however, they're not driven by profit maximization nor ratings, which is why they generally deliver more accurate and trustworthy information.

Notably, all three of those countries rank much higher on the Worlds Press Freedom Index than the US (#44) with Canada leading the way at #14 and Australia not far behind. If you think they're leftist, it's only because they don't spew the extreme right wing propaganda seen on Fox, Newsmax and OAN.

The CBC is not a propaganda arm of the Liberals; it's primarily centrist and reports both positively and negatively on all parties. Accusations of bias always erupt from partisans every time a story is perceived to be either too positive or too negative on any gven party, or when any of them seem to receive more or less media coverage than the others.

Last year alone they were accused to giving Conservative leader, O'Toole, a free ride in an effort to turn public opinion against Trudeau's government and that they were keen to air criticism - any criticism - against the Liberals. Others accused them of bias against the Conservatives in order to prop up the Liberal's minority government. Further attacks were made claiming they gave the NDP leader too much air time and were actually in that party's pocket. So your claim that the CBC is leftist is completely without merit.

It's rather notable you make no mention whatsoever of the Harper government slashing the CBC's budget by $115M when he was in power and enacting legislation stripping away their independence and powers, granting some of them to his own government, which he used to appoint their Board of Directors and President, all of which were Conservative donors, among other things.

Your criticisms against leftists, Liberals, Dems, demonstrate you're incapable of looking at the entire big picture and judging everything from a purely poltical partisan perpective rather than facts alone.

Incredible how you are either completely oblivious to and/or alternatvely choosing to ignore the fact that Chrétien & Martin reduced the national debt by $90 billion and left a budgetary surplus of $14 billion.

Harper, after publically proclaiming "We're not running a deficit ... that's our policy. We're not going into deficit." did exactly that just 6 weeks later, ultimately running six deficits that added $150 billion to the national debt.

Those are indisputable facts widely disseminated and published in governmental reports and media outlets domestically and internationally, as too are those ABC presented in their documentary. If you aren't aware of that reality, it's because the media outlets you follow are suppressing that information.
