Michael West Media have launched two new online tools to the public: TAXDATA, so you can quickly search who pays tax and who doesn't in corporate Australia, and Join-the-Dots, so you can visually check out who is connected to whom.

TAXDATA is a searchable database of thousands of corporations showing their revenue, profit and tax paid (or not). It's a living platform that will be regularly updated from the ATO Tax Transparency database and other ATO disclosures.

Your centralising website idea ⭐

Imo it would be very useful for readers but also for the diverse news groups. For example, if there were an event or situation in which some or all of them agreed upon they could make group representations, open letters, etc and make their voices better heard and save on resources. To soothe (or stop) the slow burn, perhaps discussing your idea with MWM or another independent news group their opinion might help. If you got them on side they might support you via their networks.

Thank you for the list. There are some I had not heard of so I'll have a look at them. I think we need independent media more than ever.
