Sandilands threatens to hunt down ‘piece of shit’ News Limited journalist for reporting negative viewer reaction to show
Kyle Sandilands has used his radio show to launch a vicious on air attack on a News Limited journalist who reported negative viewer comments about Kyle & Jackie O’s Night With The Stars.
The tirade saw the Today Network presenter describe Alison Stephenson as “a piece of shit”, and told her to “watch your mouth or I’ll hunt you down”. He also attacked the journalist’s weight, hairstyle and breast size.
Sandilands’ comments came after Stephenson was one of the first to report on the poor reception for the chat show which aired on Seven on Monday night.
His comments were broadcast in Sydney at around 6am, more than two hours before the show’s poor ratings were released. He told listeners:
“Some fat slag on news.com.au has already branded it a disaster. You can tell by reading the article that she just hates us and has always hated us.
“What a fat bitter thing you are. You’re deputy editor of an online thing. You’ve got a nothing job anyway. You’re a piece of shit.
“This low thing, Alison Stephenson, deputy editor of news.com.au online. You’re supposed to be impartial, you little troll.
“You’re a bullshit artist, girl. You should be fired from your job. Your hair’s very 90s. And your blouse. You haven’t got that much titty to be having that low cut a blouse. Watch your mouth or I’ll hunt you down.”
Audio of Sandilands’ comments:
It later emerged that during Kyle & Jackie O’s Night With the Stars the audience dropped from more than 1.4m to just 200,000:
The last fortnight has seen Sandilands featuring as a guest columnist for the Sunday Telegraph, which is sister paper to news.com.au.
Sandilands’ comments can be heard in the first moments of the show’s daily podcast for November 22. Update: The audio has now been removed from the podcast but can be heard above
That tool has seriously gotta go, waaaay over the line.

Vile Kyle the misogynist, could also be known as Pot in the ultimate Pot vs Kettle war. I mean, the man isn’t in the best physical shape in the world, is he? His hair is ummm… what is it again? And as for being a troll. Yeah, that. Nothing job? Check.
Can someone please wake up and realise our radio and TV would be a much better place without him? Not that I ever watch anything he is on (I make a point of switching off), but really? Calling a journo who simply reported the facts a “fat slag”?
What would he have said if a man had’ve written that piece? Would he have picked on his hair, weight and called him a faggot? Wait… yeah he probably would’ve.
Vile Kyle. Get. Him. Off. The. Airwaves.

If you need any evidence that ‘anonymous posting’ has absolutely nothing to do with hateful nasty comments – this is it.
If the industry wishes to stop hateful invective comments like Kyle Sandilands attack on Alison Stephenson, or the anonymous invectives against Sean Cummins – then they work against the things those attacks have in common.
If the Communications Council’s policy made any sense at all – then logically they should ban any mention (or prevent any comment being reported) by Kyle Sandilands – since this is a source of hateful comments.
Not that I’m suggesting it … but the Communication Council’s policy (“X has been a source of hateful comments – therefore X should be banned”) would have at least one benefit.

7 should be ashamed of themselves of even commissioning this show and thus promoting its egotistical “stars” (?). They had to use their own network talent to promote this crap, I’m sure it wasn’t that long ago that seven were dissing his behaviour via their own programmes. It seems Kyle’s penance has been done in the eyes of seven. It may have been a bidding war with the (afl) footy show, “cause he is as low as Sam N

So let me get this straight. The man, term used loosely, who spoke to David Attenborough and could only ask how animals have sex feels harshly done by because no one wants to watch him. Then he takes aim at the first journalist to report the figures, and claims she hates him even though she reported hamish and Andy’s gap year failure. Maybe he judges his success with the amount of people that dislike him? Don’t know myself, I try to switch as soon as he’s on and clearly, everyone else does too

Same with that Chris Smith buffoon.
It’s the flip side of the same coin. These idiots think that because roughly one in ten people who flick a radio on listen to them they can do as they like. It’s time they were all held to account.

Firstly… This was a story about what the viewers thought of the show, not her personal opinion…none of the quotes she took from twitter were written by her. How can he abuse her on the radio and say nothing about the people who actually wrote these things??
Secondly Kyle, how about you take a step back and look at yourself in the mirror you fat bastard, you are so desperate and disgusting you don’t even have the place to call someone else who isn’t fat…fat. Also, since when has a receding hairline and a grey comb over been in fashion?? umm never! And maybe you should be wearing low cut tops like that seeing as though your boobs ARE big enough u fat slob
You need to get over yourself, your show was shit just accept what people have to say, take a look at the ratings above if you have to..You can always dish it out but the moment you get some bad criticism you cant take it!
You are so in love with yourself that its sick, but then again i guess you would have to be seeing as though no one else will ever be. Even your wife left you- I wonder why…
I hope you see this Kyle!

It’s ok for us to publish our hateful comments on Twitter, Facebook and news sites. It’s also ok to package those comments up and try and pass them off as journalism. But, it’s not ok to voice a hateful response on the radio.

He is Rude and deserves nothing but plenty more of his own medicine..

Seriously, can’t you see that any publicity is good publicity for Kyle Sandilands? Getting riled up and hating on him only increases his fame and fortune.
Can we all just please boycott his radio show every morning?
If he doesn’t get the radio ratings, advertisers wont pay to be aired on his timeslot
and he won’t have a job.
The solution is simple. Switch stations, listen to your Ipod, turn the radio off altogether.
DON’T LISTEN TO HIS SHOW.
pass it on to everyone you know, if no one listens he should be sacked in no time.
Imagine how epic the win would be on the day kyle gets fired.
They should make a show about it!. I would be glued to the set!

I fail to see how Sandilands still has a job. He is not the least bit entertaining. Interviewing other celebrities does not make him one, nor does it make him any sort of journalist. The manner in which he acted from one negative review shows how insecure he is about himself, and how much he needs his ego to be stroked in order to get through the day.

People like this dude dont do Australia any favours in getting rid of the bogan/racist/uncultured/narrowminded tarnish it seems to (unfarily, i add) still have.
Having lived in Oz for a couple of years i was continually shocked at how Australian radio rulings let DJ’s get away with what they do and especially surprised at the things Sandilands use to say on air, i remember once the 2Day show doing a phone in entitled ‘Do you think Kyle is a Wigger?’. Nice.
Shocking. Fire the idiot and get some talent Australia can be proud of.

Wozza: I doubt publicity is the issue – Ch. 7 had been plugging the show heaps & they entered with a strong post XFactor audience.
After reading the jounos article, it wasn’t overly mean spirited (or unique) – Kyle really needs to learn to cop criticism better, it’s fair to say that the show was a ratings disaster by any measure.
Dear Kyle: Ch 7 have to make ad revenue… This requires an audience… No audience = no confidence from advertisers = bye-bye thank you for playing.

If you want him off air then advertisers will have to stop giving him money. Because there is no way people are going to stop listening to his train wreck radio.

So Kyle and Jackie’s “show” had strong rating for the first 5 mintues. Since the figures are based on scheduled air times of programs, X Factor didn.t run over by 5 minutes, did it? That’s the only logical reason for those figures for such a trivial, insignificant piece of gutter trash.

News Ltd editorial briefs to its journalists is,and always has been, ‘Rattle birdcages; shit causes comment.’ Sandilands was firing at the wrong target and he would have known that. So what is this, a clever publicity stunt? News on line heavies couldn’t be happier. Alison Stephenson has suddenly become a star and if it’s anything News Ltd needs right now it’s stars! And get it right, guys, rant and rave all you like; Sandilands will survive!

Adam is right. The only way to stop the guy is:
– stop listening (impossible given how wide the audience is)
– advertisers boycott the show which makes the costs hard to cover and means it stops yielding for Austereo
All the advertisers that queue up to spend on the show feed this c-word of a guy and reward his behaviour. Every year when he gets more salary and more media exposure he is being conditioned to keep on doing what he is doing. The only way to change him is to change the outcomes he receives for being who he currently is.

Hey, peeps, chill. Kyle was misquoted. Seriously. These were his actual comments:
“Some fat slag on news.com.au has already branded it a disaster. You can tell by reading the article that she just hates us and has always hated us.
“And why wouldn’t she?
“What a fat bitter thing I am. I’m an announcer on a radio thingy. I’ve got a nothing job anyway. I’m a piece of shit.
“This low thing, my TV show ratings, as mentioned by the deputy editor of news.com.au online. I’m supposed to be impartial, but I’m a survey troll.
“I’m a bullshit artist, girl. I should be fired from my job. My attitude is very 90s. And your shows. I haven’t got that much talent to be having that high-brow attitude. I better watch my mouth or I’ll be hunted down and shown for what I am.”

Anyway, this sounds like a winning situation for both of them. Don’t worry – he’ll say something just as stupid next week and it will be beaten up by the media, there will be another bout of internet outrage and we’ll all go round in circles again.

When is he going to stand up & behave like an adult?
People hated his silly show. Get used to it.
He has had so much bad publicity in recent times surely he is not so up himself that he did not think people would flock to his support?
It is time he was cut loose.
He brings no credit to his employers.
He brings no credit to other males
Just what has he ever actually done for the benefit of Australia & Australians?
Just who, other than a nasty, big fat bully, does he think he is.
The entire Media Industry should cut him loose & declare him Persona non Grata.

The last line, “watch your mouth, or I’ll hunt you down”, I wonder if that’s grounds for a restraining order (at the very least). I’m sure police would love to hear that audio, as to my way of thinking, it constitutes a threat against Alison Stephenson.

Mumbrella – when you do a story like this, could you please flip it around so that (in this case) ‘Kyle’ is in objective case and not subjective case. This means your heading would not so much be ‘Tool hits target’ but ‘Truth angers tool’ It is offensive to us all that he is ‘the action’ in this story.

Way to shoot from the hip Sandilands. Perhaps would have been wise to wait and see what your ratings were before your little speech. Kyle wouldn’t know what editorial integrity was if it smacked him on the arse.
And by the way Allison – I’ve seen your photo and you are lovely. Very mature that Kyle has to revert to schoolyard bullying tactics to get his point across.

I don’t like making personal remarks about people’s size, but as many of the abovr posters have noted,
Kyle is not exactly the slimmest thing around and I just can’t believe he could attack someone for their weight – he has no self awareness.
Also his comments re titty size etc, were uncalled for.
People in glass houses etc…
I can’t stand his radio show so had no desire to see him on TV, although i did see a bit of it. The desk was so huge it seemed like him and the guests were miles from each other.
And we can rant or rave all we like, but for some reason heaps of people keep listening to him on radio… so he’s laughing all the way to the bank.
I don’t see what his fans see in him, but enough people do to make him v rich…

And another thing…Tacky O is just as bad and guilty as the Big Fat Slug himself! In the background, chuckling away to the misogynistic PIG and party to the whole conversation. She’s been a contributor to every past drama filled issue over the last 5 years of their radio show, just that her talentless contibution isn’t quite as amplified as the Fat slug himself. When will these deluded and ordinary individuals piss off! Over to you advertising industry………

Listen to all you people – doing exactly what he did to Alison! So it’s NOT ok for him to have a go at her for publicly airing her opinion of his show but it is ok for you to tear him to shreds on this forum?

It’s time to shut that guy down. What a sad state of affairs that we have such a low person as a ‘celebrity’. And I think it’s also sad that the two of them (JackieO and Sandilands) are lauded as some kind of talented pair. They have the minds and maturity of 15 year olds. And what’s even sadder is they have such a following.

Jackie O and the producers of their show are just as bad as Kyle, for not making more of an effort to stop him from being so wildly unprofessional.

But we are responding to him – it wasn’t a first strike and seems kinda fair
and by the way, he has some fans it seems

Hey lets all be honest…
If he sticks to radio and fails on TV at least we don’t have to lokk at the fat slob.
Why doesn’t he just stay in LA and not pollute our mediums in Australia.
He’s a low life and gets to much oxygen. Turn it off. Please!!!

Now,Now … don’t be to tough on him, after all if he did not wear his pants to tight to expose his small dick, had a decent hairstyle, lost some weight and stopped talking, we probably think he is alright!

whitsey,
not that I am religious but what’s that old saying?
” As ye sew, so shall ye reap”
Kyle started this with his blatant & possibly even illegal threats.
Kyle has never hesitated for one nansecond to ” tear to shreds” anyone who dares to cross or criticise him as & when it suits him. & he expects to be allowed to get away with it.
Sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander.
If, as Kyle quite obviously can’t, he cannot cop legitimate criticism without resorting to threats against a person’s safety then he should not be on radio, TV or anywhere else in public.

Sandilands and Jackie o always equal zero on tv. Strange how projects his qualities on others. How they even get paid is just rubbish. Is that a threat against the safety of the journo?
User ID not verified.
I feel awful for Alison Stephenson, with regards to the publicity this has received too. Having her name repeatedly paired with “fat slag” really adds insult to injury, and all she did was write a review. Plus she’s decidedly cute, although I don’t know if that makes Sandiland’s comments better or worse.

I turned the show off after the first five mins as it was boring

Fat troll? Kyle you are a joke. She is a good sort and I would take her out anytime. You on the other hand I wouldn’t be seen dead with.

I think she’s cute. No, scrub that. Very cute.
And she’s right.
And Kyle’s wrong.
Again.
And vitriolic.
Again.
But we still keep giving him (and Jackie-O, for that matter) air.
Why?
Beats me.
Kyle, Jackie-O and every executive behind them should either leave or be fired.
End of story.

King of spin Kyle, can’t stand the guy, austereo, 7, news ltd should all sack him, he is a vile man, but he’s on their payroll.
The show bombed sounded pretty crap from the reviewers at least they were watching.
So tomorrow will sunrise and today have exclusives on 7 will the Sunday telegraph be running a must see exclusive to? Yes
Will they get lots of publicity? Yes
All about the $$$$ good or bad publicity if you didn’t know about it you do now.
This fluff of entertainment and news is an absolute joke in australia and needs a shake up.

If he does get the boot, maybe Ben at McCanns can give him job, the ageist and sexist they might get on. Im sure all the young hip digi folk at McCanns would all be big Kyle and Jackie O fans. Ooops I forgot he’s to old and has no talent.

McCann has already publicly labelled him as toxic to brands in the newspaper regarding this issue 🙂

I saw Allisons article and it was a subjective standpoint. I mean the ratings were telling but to attack him individually in the article is not an objective article, and that should be a journalist’s job
My argument is both are in the wrong. Both sides have thrown personal insults at each other. One side could not take the high ground and not acknowledge the others attacks?
I mean it isnt a good thing for Allison to fire back personal insults and stoop to Kyles level. What will that do to the representation of news.com, and its claim for ‘objectivity’?
Dont get me wrong. I think Kyle is a misogynist and he does discriminate and he is overrated but people on here are doing the same thing he does by constantly teasing him about his weight. Yes I know he teased allison but the term ‘fat slob’ by some people is too discriminatory.

Kyle who?

Yep – this is history repeating it’self – yet again:)
Do we recall back in the 80’s (or 90’s??) some chumpy looking, foul mouthed, radio jock by the name of Doug Mulray, suddenly went MIA as soon as he went on TV?
Seems obvious to me that this could have been one of your idols growing up, Kyle – no?
Like – did you ever have any wall posters of ol’ Doug in yr bedroom when you were a kid, Kyle?
I have to admit, you do remind me of how a monkey behaves – and of course, monkey see, monkey do…!!

I feel sorry for him and think the outer persona is just a cover up for a sad and very angry little boy/man who’s insecurities from childhood have left him confused. He is totally obsessed with the externals of life because he’s too scared to look deeper incase he finds something too painful to deal with. My free advise to Kyle is to cut the crap! hanging around with barely legal little girs and so called entertainers, living in big houses, having a flash car etc don’t make you a better person, a cool person or a person that others can look up to. Do yourself a favour Kyle get yourself a therapist, start looking for the person underneath all the bullshit and find some real meaning in you life before you pass the point of no return
good luck

and still his ratings go up, is the ratings system wrong, or are there far more bogans than any of us could ever imagine?

Lets face it. There is nothing anyone can do now. He has apologized to all concerned, and 3 months from now his advertisers be back on board. Situation normal. It says volumes for our media authorities complaints system, that is so outdated.
