Will Australian dj’s Mel Grieg and Michael Christian from Sydney radio outlet 2Day FM still have a job by the end of the weekend?

What was suppose to be an innocent playful prank, at least according to Aussie dj’s Mel Grieg and Michael Christian has led to tragedy with the apparent suicide of Kate Middleton nurse, Jacintha Saldanha who was duped by the pair.

And if the radio station may have for a while been rejoicing in pulling off the prank of the century they may now want to find an empty cave to hide in given the public outcry and hostility now being directed at the pair for causing an innocent party to take their own life.

The degree of disgust in fact can be seen via the following twitter remarks (below) currently making the rounds pursuant to the news of the suicide.

The presenters, from 2Day FM, remarked during their show how their efforts were the ‘easiest prank call ever made’, as they put on mock British accents they later described as ‘terrible’.

The Australian station and presenters advertised the stunt worldwide and today Christian was continuing to boast about the prank ‘making international headlines’ on Twitter. This even after the radio outlet apologized for the stunt in the first place.

Noted the UK’s dailymail:  Both presenters have deleted their Twitter accounts after an online backlash called for them to lose their jobs.

Abuse: DJ Mel Greig has deleted her Twitter account after she was bombarded with messages calling on her to quit.

One user, Alison Hassell, told Greig: ‘If you have any kind of conscience or morals….. Right about now you should be typing your resignation.’

Scott Ashworth tweeted: ‘You scumbag, hope you get what’s coming to you!’, while another user, Michael Hird, wrote: ‘I hope you’re happy now.. The receptionist you rang has COMMITTED SUICIDE! You have blood on your hands now!’

Greig also received what appeared to be threats on the social networking site.

Costas Loizou swore at the presenter and ended his message: ‘I might start calling your mum and leaving messages..in fact expect one on xmas day….’

Other users directed abuse at her co-presenter Christian. Justine Daniel told him the hoax was a ‘sick joke’ and added: ‘Hope you’re banished from being on air forever.’

Peter Timmins wrote: ‘There are no words to describe the disgust that everyone else is feeling about the prank you thought so funny.’

Sinead Gavaghan called him a ‘vile, stupid creature’ while Chris Campbell claimed: ‘You should be fired and the station shut down.’

  1. cat-in_the_bush A Kiwi living in London seemed to find it amusing, he was calling for Chris Moyles to lose his job over the ‘Polish prostitute’ comment but hasn’t condemned this, mind you he was disgusted at Moyles being racist yet posted a race hate comment about Robin Van Persie on August 26th on his twitter page as well as circulating a pornographic image of Helen Clark online both of which caused great offence.
