FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda
Despite the reassurance, the inquiry comes amid acrimony between News Limited
and Julia Gillard’s government.
Ms Gillard first brought up the prospect of an inquiry after the phone hacking
scandal in Britain was revealed.
She said that Australians
were “disturbed” by what they have seen happen in the UK and that
the company had “hard questions to answer”.
In the months since then, government MPs have complained about the tone of
News Ltd reporting, with Stephen Conroy, the communications minister,
accusing the Sydney tabloid Daily Telegraph of running a campaign of “regime
change” against the Gillard government.
Relations soured further in late August, when the Australian published an
opinion piece accusing Ms Gillard of being involved in fraud.
The piece was quickly pulled and an apology issued, but the prime minister was
furious.
In a rare move, Ms Gillard threatened legal action against the paper and
convened cabinet to discuss “going to war” with the News Limited,
believing the government had nothing left to lose.
John Hartigan, News Limited chief executive, has said his journalists do not
use phone hacking and he is “hugely confident” there is no
improper conduct in his newsrooms.
