Frequently Asked Questions

Please go to our contact page and fill out the form requesting our bank details. Once we are notified of your interest, we will send the bank details to you.

What is The Light Australia for?

The Light Australia is a non profit newspaper, distributed free to the public, run by volunteers, that prints stories the mainstream media ignores. Our prime aim is to "awaken" and engage the broader population about Australian and International events, and counter opinion, that generally remain unreported in the mainstream media.

Why did you start The Light Australia?

To inform our population of important information ignored by our Australian mainstream media, and to offer a platform to independent journalists, scientists and experts.


How is The Light Australia funded?

The Light Australia is funded by generous donations of our community, the purchase of the newspapers online and advertising in each issue.

Where do I find the paper?

The distribution of TLA is done completely by volunteers, so the locations are not pre-determined - it's at the discretion of the distributors and what works well in their area. If you haven't come across a copy of the paper where you live, there are a couple of ways to read it:

1. each issue is available online at our home page

2. you can order the newspaper online at www.thelightaustralia.com/order-the-paper. You can order as little as 3 copies up to 2,000 copies. Prices reflected on the website include the postage and/or freight

Can I donate without using your website?

Yes you can! You are able to do a direct bank transfer into our bank account. Please go to our contact page and fill out the form requesting our bank details. Once we are notified of your interest, we will send our bank details to you.

Can anyone write for The Light Australia?

Yes. Each article submitted must be limited to 500-1,000 words and submitted in a Word document format. Each article must be topical and verifiable. Include an appropriate image (royalty-free) that may compliment the article. Go to the Submissions section on our website to contribute your article.

Do the published articles include references so that readers can do further research?

Every article includes the name of the author and, in most cases, details of where you can go to read more from that author; where relevant, source and reference information is also included. This may be in the body of the article or a specific reference index. References would generally not apply to opinion pieces.

How often is the paper published?

The current publication schedule between issues is 6-8 weeks. This is somewhat fluid through different parts of the year such as Christmas, when there are a lot of other things going on! This timeframe gives sufficient time for the editorial and graphic design volunteers to finalise the content and layout, plus eases the time demands on our distribution volunteers.

Why doesn't The Light Australia have a subscription model?

The Light Australia is a volunteer organisation, and is currently not in a position to offer this service. We hope to have this up and running at some time in the near future. To keep up to date when each issue comes available, please go to the bottom on our website and sign up to one of our socials. We will post progress of each issue, and advise when the pre-order window is open for purchase. You can order as little as 3 papers through to 2,000 papers.

How do I distribute and help get the truth out?

We would love to have more volunteers on board, to help spread the truth! We are always looking for our "boots on the ground" distributors, hub leaders and drivers to get the truth newspaper out to all. Please go to our Distribute section on the website and complete the form.

I enjoyed reading a newspaper with truth in it away from a phone and computer.

In a time when news is often untrustworthy, The Light cuts to the truth. It breaks through the spin and fear that runs MS media.
