A story a good reporter could pursue now: get Lachlan and Rupert Murdoch on the record about how they feel about the Nazi salutes.
Rupert Murdoch was born in 1931; his father was a war correspondent in WWI and briefly a government minister for information during WWII

It would be great to get that in print. It would also surprise a lot of his elderly conservative audience in Australia and the UK.
OK, Lachlan will dodge it or say it's a joke. But it might not be the red line it'd be for his dad, who grew up in a country fighting fascism for its survival.

So apparently, Australia really was on the wrong side.
