Albo’s $622k pay day + Justin Baldoni v Blake Lively explained

Thursday Headlines: Harvey Weinstein found guilty in #MeToo sex crime retrial, Pentagon reviewing AUKUS to ensure ‘America First’, PM & politicians to get big pay rise, most sunscreen brands not meeting SPF claims, and one of Australia’s most famous families are at war with Queensland MP Bob Katter.

Deep Dive: It Ends With Us was tipped to be a box office sensation - and it delivered, earning more than $580 million AUD. But behind the success, stars Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni have faced intense backlash, legal battles, and controversy over the film’s handling of domestic violence themes.

In this episode of The Briefing, Helen Smith speaks with Pedestrian TV’s Laura Masia about how the film’s release unraveled online, in court, and on the red carpet.
