Jackie and Kyle are bullies. Have you ever spent any time listening to them? They are shallow, nasty people getting off on other peoples pain. I think what they did to the Cambodian refugee was by far the worst thing they have done.
But the damage they do to our youth with their obsession over ‘looks’ and ‘winners’ and ‘losers’ is harmfull too. Jackie couldn’t have had real empathy for the girl because, while she is this famous woman,(who knows,maybe a bit of pain might help her to grow in the future)she is riding too high on herself to truly understand anothers pain

I guess that’s something that grandparents are good at. Working out if a girl on the radio who they have never heard before was lying about being raped. I suppose you just knew that Lindy killed her daughter as well.

Even if the girl was lying, it doesn’t make it OK for two adults to attach a lie-detector to a 14 year old girl, and broadcast the ‘quizzing’ of her by her mother about her sexlife – and treat it all as entertainment! How can such actions be defended?

OMG Matt… did you watch A Current Affair? The whole thing was a lie. I am a grandmother and even I could tell the girl was lying, she showed no emotion, no trauma, I suspected and stated to my husband that the girl was lying. As for the question, it was the mother who wanted it asked, it was also the mother that wanted to win the holiday. She should be charged for exploiting, and Kyle and Jackie need to be reinstated and left alone. This is a lesson for us all!!

From the very first time I heard the now infamous radio interview, I knew to my core the young girl was lying.
I am a grandmother and mother, and could hear no trauma or emotion in her voice. I remember saying to my husband, that girl is lying to cover the fact she had consensual sex. I was amazed and angry how quick EVERYONE including the Prime Minister, were to attack Klye and to a lesser degree Jackie, without investigating the truth. This is honestly one of the most shameful examples of public persecution.

They did nothing wrong, the mother is to blame. The book is being thrown at, these two people, why?
Maybe because they bring a lot of issues to the forefront, truths, that other gutless media sources never repost on.
Leave them alone and put them back on air!

talk about a load of bull, It seems that all the people out there who are jealous of K & JO have now found their excuse to attack. they did nothing wrong, the girl was there with her parent, so there was parental concent. All u dull bored people out there, get a life and let K & JO live theirs. I want to hear them every morning just like b4, if u don’t like them, turn to another station, simple as that, and Aust Idol, u have lost a fan, talk about rubbish. He bought excitement to the show. Enough already, let these people have their life back, u go on their show on your own accord, no gun held to your head, what u choose to say is your problem, not theirs. Not everyone has to like everyone in the world, so move on already.

I’ll be dancing around the fire naked, making an offering of thanks to the gods for this. I mean take a look at the photo for the article here? I challenge anyone to look at it for longer than 30 seconds and not want to put your fist through your monitor. The guy is the epitome of ‘wanker’.

Kyle did absolutley revel at pushing the boundaries on common decency under the guise of ‘innocent fun’. Should have dumped him ages ago but better late than never. Watch for where he ends up surfacing which no doubt he will. GB

Oh my God Constantina, you’re kidding, right? You obviously didn’t hear what was actually said or read the transcript. Maybe Kyle and Jackie o’s ‘huge following’ are as stupid as they are, because there’s no way on God’s Earth anyone could call it ‘created hysteria’ and retain any semblance of credibility, sensibility or respectability whatsoever.

Whether 10 have jumped on the bandwagon or not, Kyle at least deserves to be treated like a leper. The insensitivity and ineptitude he showed was just mind boggling. The girl’s opportunistic and disingenuous mother deserves worse. But I’m glad that you find the taunting and public humiliation of an underage rape victim ‘entertainment’ – no wonder you think he’s being treated unfairly. Come back and comment after putting your brain in gear first.
