Oh THAT’ll work.
Radio station KIIS FM has had to employ a second censor and provide sensitivity training to Kyle Sandilands after the shock jock described watching the Tokyo Paralympics as “horrific”. […]
The latest breach follows an incident in October when Sandilands, who reportedly earns $5m a year, and ARN apologised for using a slur against people with disability.
“Have you been watching the special Olympics (sic), it is horrific some of the things,” Sandilands said live on air.
“Some poor bloke ran for the high jump and then veered right ’cause he was blind and landed on his arse on the ground.”
The report found that while the presenters expressed some admiration for the “spirit of the contest”, it would have been clear to the audience that “the Paralympians in question were being mocked by Mr Sandilands, and that they were mocked for the techniques used to participate and compete in their particular sport”.Sandilands implied that participants in the Paralympics were “a generic group of people that were somehow intrinsically inferior and were in need of special treatment or ‘lifting up’”, the report found. […]
Sandilands has been a divisive figure in Australian media for decades. Thirteen years ago he was dropped by Australian Idol (then on Channel Ten) after a public backlash over a lie-detector stunt on his radio show in which a 14-year-old girl revealed she had been raped. Both Sandilands and his co-host apologised on air at the time, saying they did not know the girl had been raped.
Although Sandilands apologised in October for “using filthy language and some derogatory archaic terms”, he said: “I’m never going to change. I’m still not changing [for] the woke world.”
I don’t know how Vile’s whole career didn’t end after that debacle with the 14 year old girl. All that’ll come out of this “sensitivity training” is a bunch of shitty jokes for content on his show before he goes on being a cunt as usual.
