The Australian Labor party has outspent the Coalition on television advertising this election, but Clive Palmer’s Trumpet of Patriots has spent more than everyone on YouTube, where he has forked out more than $4m.
Labor’s total outlay on free-to-air and subscription television spots is $5.8m, compared with the Coalition’s $4.2m. However, Trumpet of Patriots is not far behind the ALP, spending $5.6m on traditional TV ads.
