I think Steve let Bruno off the hook here, by asking only sympathetic questions.
I'd be asking Bruno:
Does he regret anything he ever did under instructions from Kyle and Jackie O, or Austereo management?
Is he annoyed that he was fired, yet Kyle Sandilands, who has had endless warnings about what he has done on air to a much larger audience, is still employed?
If so, does he feel like a scapegoat?
If not, what makes his "crime", relayed to a small number of Twitter followers, so serious?
Does he believe that Austereo pushes its employees into unethical behaviour?
If not, does he believe everything that has happened on the Kyle and Jackie O show is ethical, and appropriate for its young audience?
I could go on, but you get the idea ... I hope.
Yes, I get the idea. You can only go where the talent is willing. But I would love to see somebody really get their teeth into this issue. If I were an Austereo shareholder, or a board member, I'd be grilling management about how sustainable its current course is -- and in particular the policy of protecting Kyle Sandilands at all costs.
