After several days of public outcry (and a lot of enthusiastic cyberbullying of politicians on social media), the government finally announced free RATs…with fine print that revealed that it was actually a ludicrously small cash payment intended to subsidise privately-purchased RATs, available only after jumping through bureaucratic hoops.
Then the ALP finally reversed their position and supported universal free RATs, while studiously avoiding explaining why they wouldn’t support that yesterday.
In response to that, the government announced that a small number of actually free RATs will be available, but only to concession card holders (pensioners etc).

So which story will be published first?
The one about the production causing massive damage to protected wilderness areas, the one about Covid tearing through the cast and crew, or the one about contestants dying due to wilderness construction being a highly skilled and dangerous job?
