Their ABC is a far more powerful propaganda institution than the elected Government which has to make press releases then rely on the good offices of the various outlets to broadcast them accurately.
Their ABC is generally devious at best and also selective about what suits the Fabian agenda unless it happens to be a giant truth staring at them like ....say the Trump victory.
I also think the Left media in America has started already with the destabilisation of Trump..... a la Abbott here.
