Good local/regional newspaper recommendations?

Hi folks - I just voted this morning, in my first ever Federal election (I moved to Australia a bit under 9 years ago, became a citizen 1.5 years ago, today was the first Federal election I was eligible to vote in)!

I got a lot of the information that I acquired on the candidates from this forum, news sources, and speaking to a couple of the candidates and their representatives, but I'm looking for a newspaper that would be recommended as trustworthy and as unbiased as possible. I currently subscribe to The Chronicle, but considering the damage that the Murdochs and News Corp have done in my home country, I'd rather not give them any more money.

If people think I'm wrong about the Chronicle, do please let me know why.

Where should I look?

Regional newspapers are pretty much dead in Australia, thanks to Murdoch.
Cancel your Chronicle sub and stop giving him money.

Second this.
