“Everyone in this building talks about you behind your back,” says Kyle to Jackie O in front of everyone in the building and most of Australia

NO FILTER: Kyle Sandilands’ novel strategy of delivering a scathing performance review of his co-host while live on air has resulted in one of the biggest bust-ups in Australian radio history.

HR experts maintain that performance reviews of any kind should always be conducted in a private meeting room, preferably with frosted glass.

But Kyle revealed sensitive behind-the-scenes information about Jackie O to the entire KIIS FM staff and to listeners in Sydney, Melbourne, Perth, Brisbane, Adelaide, and several regional areas.

“I guess I could have just had a quiet chat with her, but that wouldn’t have been anywhere near as fun,” Kyle told DBT.

Jackie O resigned shortly after and Sandilands was stood down for serious misconduct, with ARN pulling the show from air entirely.

Management is reminding staff that microphones are not a substitute for emotional regulation.
