Murdoch’s media empire is a cancer on our democracy.
For too long Rupert Murdoch has used his media platforms like The Australian and Sky After Dark to spread racism and hate speech. Their commentators vilify and scapegoat communities of colour to divide and distract us from real failures of the government during COVID-19 - all to keep their powerful mates in power.
Hate speech comes at a dangerous price – they are emboldening far right extremists. From resurrecting Pauline Hanson’s career and giving space to violent white supremacists.
With Kevin Rudd launching a Murdoch Royal Commission, the time to boycott Murdoch is now.
Sign our Hate Is Not News pledge. And so long as Rupert Murdoch’s media empire continues to spread hate, we will not support its platforms – we will not subscribe to, advertise with, or distribute any of Rupert Murdoch’s publications or services.
