Report: Kyle & Jackie O in talks with old network SCA about comeback
Sydney’s most sought-after radio duo, Kyle Sandilands and Jackie O Henderson, have reportedly been in talks with Southern Cross Austereo (SCA) about moving back to the network, as the pair’s contract with ARN ends next year.
The Australian Financial Review quotes sources saying that SCA has been “pretty aggressive” in pursuing the pair as the end of their current deal with KIIS FM approaches at the end of 2024. Either way, it’s expected a new deal with the duo will be finalised by the end of the year.
The old ‘in talks with a competitor’ strategy to push up their asking price. Oldest radio trick in the book 🙂
Don’t they hang poop on SCA on-air all the time? Surely a move back there would be seen as very inauthentic by their audience. Not good for a team who trade on authenticity.
