    Why the media are not calling this out - the main commercial media tv, web, newspapers have colesworth as a major advertiser. Don’t bite the hand that feeds you. ABC is the only one that has the freedom to report on it, and unfortunately a lot of people don’t watch/read ABC so remain blissfully unaware.

      Do they really not? I just assumed heaps more did after the whole anti-Murdoch pushback around the last 2 elections (US and Aus). But dont ask me what I’m basing that assumption off.

        I don’t have any numbers either, just anecdotal. Guess it depends on the demographic. Lots of younger people don’t, and then there’s the subgroup that think it’s too intellectual or lefty or biased. I actually think it’s probably the most neutral we have, because it’s not at the mercy of commercial interests or a very politically powerful billionaire.
