Family First Senator Steve Fielding has stayed true to the philosophy of his Party and 56,372 supporters by this week voting to pass the government’s media legislation. At last count at least two Australian families and one American family have benefited from the frenzy of media manoeuvres triggered by the bill’s success. Representatives of the Packer, Stokes and Murdoch families have placed calls to Fielding to personally thank him for standing up in Australia’s parliament for their families, telling him that they have felt neglected by Australian lawmakers for too long.

The other seven million Australian families are waiting with anticipation to benefit from Fielding’s media changes.

The Pentecostal Church has written a sternly worded letter to Steve Fielding demanding an explanation.
