From my Facebook Post:
He referred to a contestant as a “full M**g” (derogatory reference to Down Syndrome). Said to Jessica Mauboy - “lose the jelly belly” if you want to succeed. He referred to the Paralympics as being “horrific to watch”.
Also said: “listen, you can be nice to the handicapped, but you don’t have to compare them to the non-handicapped”. He spoke insensitively on air to a 15 year old rape victim.
In 2022 alone, he has been accused of “sexism“, “white-washing“, “homophobia”, “ableism“, “bullying” and “slut-shaming“, broadcasting his often under-educated comments to millions of listeners under the guise of being a jokester.
This man got married today. He earns $5m a year spruiking the above rubbish on Sydney radio and TV. The flowers at the wedding cost $150k, the stylist cost $250k. And PM Albanese and Premier Minns chose to attend Kyle Sandilands wedding today.
Not tone deaf at all. In an economic crisis let’s give credibility to a ableist, racist, nasty piece of works.
But don’t forget “I grew up in a Housing Commission flat in inner Sydney”.
Fast losing any respect I had for the PM.
