An alleged bite on a male v an alleged assault of a woman and which story is the lead?

i'd be very surprised if the panel on The Back Page don't discuss the alleged Gower incident. i'd also be very surprised if they even mentioned the alleged bashings by two AFL players.
Notell said:Yep Gibbo'd want to have Gower's story there. He has no time for these drunken louts. But surely the media if wanting to sell more papers, and TV news promoting the upcoming edition, would want to make a big deal of two AFL players bashing a woman. Exactly the type of thing the public lap up.
Channel Seven will continue to use Cousins as an ambassador and a weekly guest on Perth news bulletins.
