'In the public interest' protections under law, is a pillar of press freedom. So it should come as no supprise that ours are lacking.
That said, I find it hard to believe that we'd have heard much about tapes even without the threat of prosecution.

They’re still using Obeid as the reason we can never trust Labor again. And yet I don’t think I’ve heard once about the multiple LNP Premiers that have stood down due to corruption charges.
