Kyle and Jackie O exit mid-show after dump button furore
Kyle Sandilands and Jackie O have sensationally walked off their own show on the KIIS network.
Entertainment reporter Peter Ford told Gareth Parker on 6PR Breakfast that after consulting a lawyer, they both suddenly quit mid-episode today after a censor misunderstood something during the pair’s interview with Alan Jones.
“They were furious, so much so that Kyle had been on the phone to his lawyer and his lawyer said ‘walk out of there’,” Ford told Parker.

“It would seem the censor has misunderstood something and hit that dump button for no reason at all.”
Ford also touched on Kate Richie taking an early break from her radio hosting duties, and his appearance at this weekend’s Telethon in Perth, where it’s expected he’ll perform a Backstreet Boys number with Rick Ardon.
