There’s an interview on The Rest is Politics Leading podcast with the politician Peter Malinauskas the premier of New South Wales who started the introduction of this law in his state first. I think it was maybe then taken up by the federal government.

It’s very insightful and from listening to this it seems unlikely that murdoch was a huge influence on this.

Even if they were, aren't they are unlikely to gain much from this. I.e, when the average teenager can't consume social media platforms anymore, they surely won't go back to a more traditional outlet?
Just as a note. Peter is premier of South Australia. Same political party as national and NSW though
Apologies you’re right, I looked it up but my brain had obviously already decided it was NSW as that’s what I wrote. It’s a great interview, he seems like a good guy.
