The PM Is not the kind of person to sell out Australia for the gambling industry. Labor as a party is beholden to the gambling industry because money talks in Australian politics. Sure they did pass political donation reform, but the press is beholden to advertisers and so the advertisers have a lot of influence in the press.

I'm starting to question whether the free press should even exist, or can exist under capitalism.

It cannot. To begin with, having one rich fuck have their voice be amplified to a thousand or a hundred thousand times that of the average person, merely because their wealth allows them to buy and therefore control media, is obviously not democratic.
