I live in Australia. State run media (abc and sbs) have a left-leaning (as in, more aligned with Obama than trump) bias. I’m certainly left leaning but Open to reasonable conservative/right wing perspectives.

The problem is that I perceive all right wing media to have a huge bias and don’t believe my view is unreasonable. there was a call for a royal commission into Murdoch and other media superpowers which reached 500k signatures on change.org, but barely mentioned in mainstream media. in contrast, a homo/transphobic conservative school ‘contract’ hit barely 20k signatures before being blown up by virtually all media for days (I’m not saying the topic/issue was unimportant, fwiw).

Think about that on a broader scale, locally there have been a fair few pushes into privacy / freedom erosion over the past decade. I’m not trying to sway people into my way of thinking, but I don’t think currently the media really gives people a reasonable discussion of real issues.
