Kyle Sandilands claims ARN Media encouraged his provocative on-air persona before terminating his $100 million contract following a dispute.Summary
Kyle Sandilands, former host of Kiis FM’s breakfast show, is alleging that ARN Media actively fostered the aggressive and provocative style that ultimately led to his dismissal and the termination of his $100 million contract. According to documents filed with the Federal Court and obtained by The Australian Financial Review, Sandilands contends that ARN not only wanted him to embody this character for over two decades but also explicitly included it as a condition within his contract. He argues that the company encouraged the behavior that culminated in an on-air altercation with co-host Jackie Henderson, which then served as the basis for the contract termination.
