The recent ABC reports defaming Falun Dafa and echoing Chinese Communist Party (CCP) lies and propaganda highlight alarming concerns of our media independence being threatened by foreign political infiltration. This also raises the question when taxpayer money in our national broadcaster is not used in line with our values and freedom
