Just read this in the news: http://www.smh.com.au/entertainment/tv-and...0120-1q9b1.html These girls are really starting to bite into the advertisers that support Kyle.

Here's a link to their facebook group: http://www.facebook.com/groups/331298220219718/
And here's a link to their website: http://sackvilekyle.blogspot.com/view/magazine

ETA: And here's the petition: http://www.change.org/petitions/2day-and-f...radio-vilekyle#

I signed the petition a month ago.

I can't stand people who attack women who they may disagree with by calling them names and commenting unfavourably on their physical appearance. Eg, she's an old b**ch, she's just a skany ho, what a cow. It is weak and pathetic. For goodness sake, attack their arguments and viewpoints if you disagree with them. Although in this case, the reporter was simply reporting facts.

People say that it is free speech and if you don't like him, don't listen to him. I totally agree with this but it is also my right to let advertisers know that I won't be considering their products while they associate with this man and his misogynist mindset.

LOL @ Vile Kyle! Love it!

I don't know how Jackie O works with him. She must be getting paid a helluva lot to deal with him.

Honestly if you don't like him - JUST DON"T LISTEN TO HIM.

I personally have far more important things going on than worrying about Kyle Sandilands who is probably loving the fact so much time and attention is being paid to him.

I don't listen to him mirj2. He's a d*ck. I do however think this is definitely a case of 'evil flourishes when good people stand by and do nothing'. Plus, I particularly like the approach of letting the advertisers know how offensive he is, rather than dealing with him directly. It doesn't really give him much additional airtime but it DOES cut into his worth to the radio station.

Would there be all this hatred if it were comments about men??? or are women just "special" I find it easier to not listen to him then I can't have a reason to comment on him or hate him

I signed a month or so ago to, but I was very happy to read today about these women who are maintaining the rage!

I don't agree with the free speech argument. I am not a listener to the show, but I want to let advertisers know that I think less of them for supporting this man's deliberate, attention seeking, vileness. I am not saying he should be thrown in gaol or prevented from voicing his opinion. Maybe 2UE can keep itself running with brands whose consumers won't care - maybe Spearmint Rhino and Ralph will get on board.
