Can we just get rid of them, like NZ did. There is no way they should own the name 'The Australian '

fox investors dont want to be associated with news corpse and news corpse investors dont want to be associated with fox , very understandable in both cases ,

Evil man

the sooner this shunt dies the better

Wait till Dominion sues fox into bankruptcy then news corpse can acquire its assets for pennies

They both peddle the same crap and lies
