>>12927532I'm an Aussie and the same thing is happening here, our treasurer announced an economic report by saying "we have the best preforming economy in the world" but if you actually read the report we rank 32nd for economic growth.
The media here love the current government so just report "we are number 1" without mentioning the fact we preformed worse than Ecuador.
Because of this shit we have a former prime minister pushing hard to force the media to report facts ie. the content of reports rather than claims made about them. Or course the current government that preforms worse than fucking Ecuador is never going to let this pass.
