Ben Fordham hits back after Kyle Sandilands calls him “a piece of shit”

Former Assistant Editor

2GB Drive host Ben Fordham has hit back at Kyle Sandilands following comments the KIIS FM host made on the Kyle & Jackie O Show.

Ben revealed yesterday that the KIIS production team had sent him audio of Kyle calling him “a piece of shit” and a “dog”.

“I’m happy to cop a bit of grief… but the way he treated his newsreader this morning I think was appalling,” said Ben.

The spat began when KIIS 106.5 newsreader Brooklyn Ross defended Ben on The Kyle & Jackie O Breakfast Show.

Kyle then called Ben to abuse him.

“I know he can go on like a bit of a bully, but the idea that he’d then take it out on his newsreader Brooklyn Ross and suggest that there’d be no news today just because Brooklyn was sticking up for me I think is red hot,” said Ben on 2GB Drive.

Brooklyn then called in to speak to Ben; “I’ve still got to say, I am on Kyle’s side because I don’t want to deal with this tomorrow morning!”

“Mate, I don’t blame you, the bloke’s mad!” responded Ben.
