Triple J is a taxpayer-funded entity with a specific mandate to reach 18- to 24-year-olds, so audience shifts deserve scrutiny.

Triple J has been around forever, and yes, is an arm of the ABC, as is the Drum. Funded by taxpayers.

(Edit because I haven't had my coffee yet this morning)

Is it degenerate? OP says the stations are degenerate.

Yes, and very woke and alive to social issues.

I haven't listened to it for a long while, but I'm betting it has now become very anti-white as well (Like Australia is these days)
