On March 19th, here's the latest out of Sydney. Radio star Kyle Sandelands broke his silence in an exclusive interview with Seven News, revealing he's fighting back after his 100 million. Dollar contract with ARN got torn up. This comes after an on-air clash with longtime co-host, Jackie O'Henderson, that led to the end of their show on KIIS FM. Sandelands says he's challenging the termination legally and wants to get back to his audience. He described the situation as annoying, rather than emotional, stressing that contracts should be honored. While he held back on some details due to legal reasons, it's clear he's determined to sort this out and return to the airwaves soon. In the latest radio ratings, Kyle and Jackie O'Henderson still dominated FM breakfast in Sydney, finishing just behind Ben Fordham on 2GB. Listeners are wondering where their fans will tune in next, with the upcoming survey set to show how KIIS FM fares without the duo. Meanwhile, ARN is facing bigger problems as issues at KIIS FM spill over to their other
station, Gold. They recently shifted breakfast host Jonesy and Amanda to drive time to bring in Christian O'Connell from Melbourne, but lost over a third of the audience since January. Experts like media analyst Tim Burrows note that Sydney Breakfast Radio is wide open now, with no clear home for the former top shows listeners. Things like smooth FM lead overall, followed by 2GB, KIIS, Nova, and Gold as the market resets. The Daily News Now is powered by our sponsor, Link in the description.
