In what is emerging as one of Australia’s most disturbing financial injustices, serious
allegations are being levelled against the Australian Government-specifically the
Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC)-and legacy media group Fairfax Media. Entrepreneur and media founder Jamie McIntyre, creator of the Australian National Review (ANR), claims that a decade-long campaign of collusion, defamation, and deliberate financial sabotage by these powerful institutions cost him not only $5.8 million in lost
assets, but has now resulted in over $250 million in personal losses across multiple
ventures.
$5.8 Million in Assets Lost Through Orchestrated Sabotage
According to McIntyre and his legal team, the alleged collusion between ASIC and Fairfax Media was designed to unjustly target him and destroy his financial standing. This began with regulatory interference that directly led to the loss of $5.8 million in legitimate
business assets-not through mismanagement or investor fallout, but due to calculated
actions that disrupted viable projects and businesses he had built over years.
These funds were not frozen pending legal action or returned to investors-they were lost entirely due to ASIC’s unnecessary and unjustified interventions, coupled with a media smear campaign led by Fairfax that crippled McIntyre’s ability to defend his name or restore business confidence.
Coordinated Media and Regulatory Assault
McIntyre alleges that ASIC and Fairfax Media worked in tandem, with Fairfax publishing defamatory and misleading articles aimed at discrediting him in the public eye. These stories-many of which lacked factual basis and balance-were used to justify ASIC’s actions and further reinforce a false narrative that McIntyre had somehow misused investor funds, when in fact it was ASIC’s actions that directly caused the financial damage.
This wasn’t just poor reporting or overzealous regulation-according to McIntyre, it was a deliberate and well-coordinated attempt to destroy his reputation and businesses, using public institutions and media influence to suppress an outspoken entrepreneur who challenged mainstream narratives.
Over $250 Million in Long-Term Personal Losses
What began as a $5.8 million asset loss has now grown into an estimated $250 million in personal losses for McIntyre over the past decade. This figure includes losses from
blocked property developments, cancelled media projects, and other entrepreneurial
ventures derailed due to reputational sabotage and market interference.
Importantly, these losses are not attributed to investors, but to McIntyre personally, as
he continued to back ventures out of his own pocket, absorb legal costs, and fight to
rebuild while being publicly vilified and institutionally stonewalled.
Lawsuit Pending Against ASIC and Fairfax Media
A major lawsuit is now pending against both ASIC and Fairfax Media. The legal action alleges collusion, malicious defamation, abuse of regulatory power, and calculated financial harm. McIntyre’s legal team argues that both entities acted outside their legal and ethical boundaries to destroy a politically inconvenient figure who refused to conform to mainstream narratives and was building considerable influence through alternative media platforms like the Australian National Review.
If successful, the lawsuit could become a landmark case, exposing how public regulators and media corporations can collude to destroy private citizens for political or ideological reasons, all while escaping public accountability.
Mounting Public Backlash
The case feeds into a broader wave of public dissatisfaction with ASIC, which many Australians see as a failed regulator. Numerous critics accuse ASIC of pursuing vendettas against small operators and whistleblowers while ignoring major corporate wrongdoing within Australia’s banking and financial sectors.
Meanwhile, Fairfax Media (now part of Nine Entertainment) is under renewed scrutiny for what many see as biased and agenda-driven reporting, often used as a tool to prop up establishment narratives and silence dissent.
A Fight for Justice
Jamie McIntyre’s decade-long struggle for justice is more than just a personal legal battle-it represents a critical test of accountability and transparency in Australia. If proven, the actions of ASIC and Fairfax Media would not only represent a gross abuse of institutional power, but a warning to all Australians about how easily individuals can be targeted and ruined by those with unchecked authority and media control.
