Ray Hadley’s ‘low-life dog’ comments breached radio’s decency requirements

Radio broadcaster Ray Hadley breached broadcasting decency requirements when he referred to a social media user as a “flea” and “low-life dog”, the regulator has found.

The chair of the Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA) Nerida O’Loughlin said the comments were not appropriate for public radio broadcasting in Australia.

Hadley has been called out by the watchdog

The comments were made in response to a social media user who allegedly made a remark about Hadley’s granddaughter.
