Toxic Icon, Just Write
Toxic Icon
Most people would rail against being called a misogynist. But Andrew Tate is not one of them. Not only does he embrace the label, he actively promotes his hateful views about women to millions of social media followers. Hard as it is to fathom, Tate's business of monetising misogyny has made him rich beyond belief. This toxic icon's success is born from the fact he has tapped into a very impressionable constituency: young men, including thousands and thousands from Australia, who have fallen under his spell. But as Nine's Christine Ahern reports, a fightback is underway, one that prioritises the wellbeing of those so damaged by Andrew Tate and his appalling beliefs.

Just Write
As a singer, Ed Sheeran's career statistics are extraordinary. Fourteen number one hits, billions of streams of his music, hundreds of millions of records sold, and packed-out arena concerts whenever he tours. But equally impressive is the ease with which he can write songs. For many performers, this is the hardest part of the business. Not for Ed, now 34, who in the last two decades has penned close to three and a half thousand. There's not only more on the way, Sheeran has also announced an Australian tour to showcase his new music.
