Appreciate the archive.is link

Almost 40 per cent of Sky’s digital audience is based in the US, compared with 26 per cent in Australia, this masthead reported last year. It finds most of its reach on digital platforms, in particular YouTube, where it has nearly 5 million subscribers.

So, the media conglomerate that owns the majority of Australian media, and is owned by a non Australian, is mainly watched by a non Australian audience.

It boggles the mind how this is allowed.

Well, it's at least preferable for them to be spending their time propagandising to Americans than to Australians, right?
