Well that’s above average since the average salary is $77,152 in Australia in 2023.

Yeah but this is in Sydney, one of the most expensive cities in the world, on the #1 morning show, with the highest paid radio presenters in the country. I’m sure they could fork out a bit more.

Well, that’s what happens whrn the million dollar presenters are greedy and don’t share thr wealth with the team that produce the show. The producers walk.

Lol it’s hardly their fault if other staff don’t get paid well. The company should budget their wages better then.

In media you chase the opportunities as they come. If nobody where you are has growth opportunities or can’t see your talent then you go elsewhere.

From Herald Sun via Mediaweek:

Controversial shock jock Kyle Sandilands is “gunning” to bring his top-rating breakfast radio show to Melbourne, reports News Corp’s Nui Te Koha.

“Why would you have the biggest radio show of all-time — ever — but only do it in Sydney?” Sandilands told the Sunday Herald Sun.

“If I was in charge, I’d put the biggest product they’ve got on air nationally.”

Lol how to kill a station in one move.
Us Melbournians won’t want to listen to a Sydney-based breakfast show.

I’m certain he’s said this verbatim previously, and nothing has eventuated.

He knows it gets clicks and headlines, and ARM would know they’d be lucky to get a 3 share in Melbourne with him.

How lovely! Take an old friend’s Melbourne breakfast show off air to replace with your Sydney one.

And not to mention the situation that it would impose on 96FM as well - it wouldn’t fit well for 96’s format, and the outcry with the loss of Clairsy and Lisa as well.

The hour of power is too much for 96fm, imagine breakfast!! No thanks. Sydney can keep them imo. :blush:

Honestly, this is why I honestly think ARN should make a KIIS DAB+ station for Perth, have it be a timeshifted version of 1065 (with Perth news and traffic instead of with the Sydney stuff), and then take the plunge and move 96FM to Pure Gold.

They’d rather wait for 6iX’s licence to convert to FM in about 30 years from now.
