Our primary digital news service runs on our website, www.westernweekender.com.au. Talk to us about marketing and advertising opportunities for your business - we offer unrivalled access to Penrith locals across multiple plat

forms. The Weekender reserves the right to delete comments on social media assets that our administrators believe are potentially defamatory, offensive, or in breach of community expectations and standards; or break the law. Comments on social media posts are monitored by administrators of the page, and comments may be removed if administrators believe they may breach any of the above standards, or if a discretionary call is made following correspondence. The Weekender may also ban users who repeatedly breach any of these categories. Whether a comment reaches a point of deletion can be a subjective decision, and we do stand by people's rights to have an opinion within the law. We welcome the reporting of specific comments that require attention to [email protected]. Visit www.westernweekender.com.au/getapaper.
