The nation is currently enjoying a relatively peaceful day of reprieve from the government’s propaganda arm today.

This comes as the Daily Telegraph printed a blank front page free from any climate change denial or Islamaphobia.

The paper has joined forces with other media outlets across the country in surprisingly noble push back against the government for its infringements upon a free press.

Seemingly biting the hand that feeds them, the Daily Telegraph confirmed that they are today protesting against the government in its desire to stifle information being released to the press and intimidate journalists and news organisations.

The Right To Know coalition, of which the ABC, Fairfax, News Corp etc are members, is behind the campaign, calling for the decriminalisation of public interest journalism, and greater protection for the media and whistleblowers.

“Look I think that the lengths we have gone to to agree with the ABC and Fairfax on something, and allow a front-page out without any questionable material on it shows how serious we actually are about this,” said the Daily Telegraph Editor Bill French.

“But to our loyal readership, don’t fear, we’ll be back tomorrow with the good stuff.”

“Miranda’s working on something extra spicy let me tell you,” he laughed.
