Has there been a conservative media conspiracy against Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull?

Chris Uhlmann, the political editor of Nine News, on Thursday accused certain media commentators of crossing the line from reporting on the leadership spill to becoming active participants.

Former prime minister Tony Abbott and conservative radio host Ray Hadley.

He also said that “everyone from the Prime Minister on down has pointed out to me that they believe there is a campaign being waged against them”.

Mr Uhlmann named News Corp publications The Australian and The Daily Telegraph, Macquarie Radio station 2GB (part owned by Fairfax Media, publisher of this website) and Sky News as those believed to be against Turnbull.
