Media Ownership

All private media outlets will be subject to the (to be instituted) Honesty in Media regulations.

The EAP support the creation of an independent overseer specifically tasked to disseminate the current 88% concentration of media outlets to the existing ownership duopoly.

Limits to the range and magnitude of centralised ownership across all branches of media will be expanded to ensure the widest possible distribution of media sourcing.

The ABC and SBS will remain as national carrier/s of electronic and digital news that are independent of private funding to maintain impartiality.

They will be required to run no party specific political advertising, and they will be subject to the same Honesty in Media regulations as the private media outlets.
