An Argy Bargy About Em Rata
On Wednesday, we were part of the chorus of relief and delight at a missing girl being found alive after 18 days. Since then, there have been paparazzi outside Cleo Smith's house, pictures of her first days of freedom, a meeting between the family and the WA Premier. Cleo's family will be bombarded with media offers, many with price tags, but is this a time when the media should be leaving the Smiths alone? Do we feel like we're owed something because of the emotion we've invested in this story? Plus, Celeste Barber, Em Rata, and a row about internalised misogyny. And, our best and worst of the week, which includes a very embarrassing Prime Minister and Joe Rogan.

Gladys And The Case Of The Very Bad Boyfriend
Former NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian has made an appearance at the ICAC investigation into whether or not she breached public trust, and turned a blind eye to alleged corrupt behaviour by her ex-partner. Two camps have formed in the court of public opinion, The ‘poor Gladys, everyone’s had a bad boyfriend’ team and the ‘she knew exactly what she was doing’ side. We're divided.
