Kyle Sandilands is ace<\/a>. So is Jacqueline Ellen Marie Last O\u2019Neil Henderson<\/a>. Sadly, their brand<\/a> — ‘The Kyle & Jackie O Show’ — has been badly disembiggened by its strong word association football with the terms ‘rape’ and ‘concentration camps’. Unless your name is Adolf Hitler<\/a> (a number of whose worshippers are gathering in Melbourne this weekend<\/a>), ‘rape’ and ‘concentration camps’ are not normally categorised under the heading ‘Fun’, and so other brands which rely on ‘The Kyle & Jackie O Show’ brand for ‘fun’ (meaning: profit) are at risk of also being disembiggened via<\/em> their own association football with Kyle and Jackie.<\/p>\n

And rape.<\/p>\n

And concentration camps.<\/p>\n

Worryingly, one major sponsor, US-based corporation Optus, has withdrawn its support for the show. If others follow, Kyle (but not Jackie — she’s a grrl, and made of Pepsi) is fuct. The fact that ‘The Kyle & Jackie O Show’ may continue to rate its socks off, or that the pair have 367,532 followers on Twitter means jack shit. \"Blank\"<\/a> Political Economy of the Mass Media 101<\/em>. Speaking of Jack (and shit), Mister Marx has penned a short essay in defence of Kyle: ‘Leave Kyle Sandilands alone, says Jack Marx’<\/a> (NEWS.com.au, September 10, 2009).<\/p>\n

At least Kyle didn’t upload a video like this<\/a> to YouTube.<\/p>\n
