Kruger, McKenney axed

Kruger, McKenney axed

Posted September 17th, 2009 by debritz

They may be stars on Dacing with the Stars, but Todd McKenney and Sonia Kruger have been axed from their gig on Sydney radio station Mix 106.5. Meanwhile, Kyle Sandilands has had his suspension increased to four weeks, but will return to 2Day next month. As Peter Heliar and Myf Warhust from Melbourne's Triple M and many others know, the only unpardonable crime in radio is failing to rate.
PS: I wonder if this is any consolation to Sammy Power, who was axed to make way for McKenney and Kruger despite earning higher figures than they ever achieved? Still, there have been reports that she'll be making a Sydney comeback.

Mix 106.5 Sydney

I'm surprised they let it go as long as it did! I hear there's a husband and wife team in the running?

Interesting. I wonder if they are Queenslanders who have recently been in WA and Victoria?

Yes, due to user complaint
Yes, due to user complaint -- problems with the flexible width displaying badly on big screens. I'm now shopping around for a more elegant and powerful fixed-width Drupal theme.

Good luck for tomorrow

Good luck for tomorrow Brett, then... the 612 SuperSubs begin.

I really hope Spencer doesn't stick you with a footballer, or worse... John Birmingham (the one who tried to name the Hale St Bridge "JB's Big Erection").

What's your biggest fear going into this period...

On Crashes recent Ashes

On Crashes recent Ashes Blogs,he stated (far too often for any sane man to enjoy) that if England won the Ashes,he'd get a Union Jack Tatt on his clacker....It might be a wonderful Brisbane Radio moment for him to drop his strides,bend over in front of you and show you the UNION JACK in its full glory....I look forward to hearing about it ( I dont really wont to see it )

Are you listening, ...?

Hey Brett, i wonder if ... is listening! Like the second most famous line from Field of Dreams, "The memories will be so thick they'll have to brush them away from their faces." ...
