The coverage of the win:
* Three paragraphs on the ratings.
* Seven paragraphs with the Nationals leader on the cost of a public holiday, with a one tiny pic of the team at the match
* a cartoon
* one letter to the editor with an even smaller pic
* nothing in the sports pages

Seriously?

@Dianora The realisation hit me a couple of years ago that virtually all of the informational abuses we normally consider all stem from a common cause: media monopoly.

Censorship.
Propaganda.
Surveillance.
Targeted manipulation.
