Australia doesn't really have a robust fourth estate. It has a Murdoch-ruled empire which is pretty much the propaganda arm of the rightwing Liberal government, though it's hard to say who wags who's tail. FB is an insane echo chamber for sure but at least you can pick your chamber. Any exposure to the news in Australia is tainted by the Murdoch's foul agenda.
