Karl Stefanovic to leave Channel Nine, pulls out of radio show
Karl Stefanovic is leaving Channel Nine and has withdrawn from a scheduled ARN radio appearance after a podcast interview he recorded with UK far-right activist Tommy Robinson was pulled from his social accounts. Stefanovic spent more than 20 years as a Today show co-host and was one of Channel Nine's highest-paid presenters; the Robinson episode was deleted within 24 hours and prompted internal crisis talks at Nine. Channel Nine has moved to sever ties, removed Stefanovic from upcoming broadcasts, and executives are weighing potential replacements for the Today show role.
🚨 Karl Stefanovic has reportedly been SACKED by Channel Nine as presenter of The Today Show (Australia) after his propaganda interview with Tommy Robinson. Karl gave long-time violent criminal Tommy a friendly platform to lie uninterrupted about his legal troubles for 40 minutes straight.
Gadget106He is now free to go do what he clearly wants - be a podcast clown like Tucker Carlson.
Gill Tavner60Thanks you Channel 9. Can you send your CEO to have a word with BBC please?
zenweb.bsky.social47Serves him right, and Tommy Robinson is a thug and a moron not to mention a convicted criminal, a coward and a loser !!!
Miles Raymond21He'll be running Sky News Australia by the end of the year
sheethaduskrunner.bsky.social20Now isn't that refreshing? Someone being fired not for refusing to promote lies, but for spreading them? That's the difference between Australia and the USA right now in their ideas about the role of the press.
Michael Witthaus10The US could learn from the Aussies, but they probably won’t
Small World-Big adventure8Good riddance to KKKarl. Now he can go and join with the other racist bigots at ON.
Common Sense Only8How did the channel not nip that interview in the bud before it ever was broadcasted much less end it mid interview?
Steve7What about sacking Ch9 !!
dargster.bsky.social5He’ll find a job on Sky After Dark. Should fit in easily.
jazzrat2000 AKA Bonsai anonymous5He should come to the United States. We like to give air time to criminals. Also elected office
Rebecca5In America that’s just business as usual here. Our “Free”. Press has turned into a propaganda machine and we are paying for it.
thobgubnol.bsky.social4As he should be. As a reporter is suppose to give factual information even when you are interviewing on radio or TV. Propaganda is not factual it is falsehoods dressed up as being factual.
Mercurial Me4Thank you, Channel 9 Australia for showing the way forward
Clare3Good Tiny Tommy’s a racist piece of shit
Alex R Olivas Jr3Nice to see there are still places where you can get fired for this.
Crickets2We need to do the same here in the US to everyone lying, even the clown at the top.
nick H2God I hope this is true, goodbye $wat
#BREAKING 🚨 Today Show host Karl Stefanovic has reportedly been fired by Nine after interviewing Tommy Robinson on his podcast, The Australian reports The interview had been removed from Stefanovic's social media platforms amid reports that Nine bosses weren't happy
3wombats19How sad he won’t be missed
Henry George18He couldn’t have tried harder to get sacked. And now will try and monetise being ‘cancelled’.
John Kennedy8Great news! I've always wondered why he was employed.
Meeting Of The Tribes6platforming Neo Nazi thugs who encourage race riots should have consequences. Not that Stefanovic cares. He will problem get fuck off money, wrapped in a cloak called victimhood. Karl is going full time professional racist grifter. I hope the POS gets sued for defamation.
QOTL 🇺🇦🇨🇦🇬🇱🇵🇦4I do hope they don’t hire him back at Today.. for a THIRD time. He can take his fake OTT laugh and back-slap for fascists into the podcast world and become Joe Bogan (as he calls himself). Good riddance. #ausnews
Tristram Lennard3I guess he can focus on getting a PHON candidacy now.
skybydoo.bsky.social3I have always considered him the face of channel 9 - which is why I don't even have their app on my TV. I'm still not inclined to change my decision because I wouldn't be surprised if channel 9 changed theirs.
mynameisdieter 🍉2At last some good news, absolutely flog Good riddance KS
Morabeets 🍉 🇺🇦 🏳️🌈🌏♀️2He wants to be notorious.
Lee Thumwood2Good. Promoting Tommy Ten Names is vile. He's a scumbag grifter who sews hate!
Karl Stefanovic, Kyle Sandilands, Dave Hughes all magically begin to support Pauline Hanson, burning bridges from their old income. What dark money is paying their new income so it can buy our elections? Rage for the machine #auspol
Daz86477The one thing they all have in common is that they are all cunts.
Valentenya the climate cat 🍉 🐈⬛2Everything about ON's rise is curated by dark money and the "think tanks" that specialise in psychological manipulation. It's also a foreign interference espionage operation that Mike Burgess is too busy defending Israel to notice. We're sitting 🦆🦆🦆
