Dingo attacks Sandilands in on-air stoush

An incensed Ernie Dingo launched into an all-out attack on Kyle Sandilands today, calling him a "commercial wanker" after a joke was made about dingoes eating babies.

Dingo took a bite out of an unsuspecting Sandilands after he was introduced with a grab of Meryl Streep screaming, "A dingo took my baby", from the movie Evil Angels.

Dingo was on the Kyle and Jackie O program to promote his new Channel 7 show Outback Wildlife Rescue.

The guest, already upset by the audio introduction, became more agitated after Sandilands casually glossed over the details of the show, calling it "Outback Rescue" and incorrectly saying it was to air at 7pm tonight.

As Sandilands led into a story about co-host Jackie O's own animal rescue attempts, Dingo interrupted him with unexpected animosity, leaving both he and Jackie O stunned.

"Basically, I think Kyle you're a bit over the top, mate," Dingo said.

"I don't think you've cared for an animal in your life, mate."

"Like your promo you put on, that 'A dingo took my baby' - that's character assassination as far as I'm concerned towards me.

"Your game is to sensationalise things and you're just basically a commercial wanker."

The interview degenerated further, with Dingo attempting to speak solely to Jackie O before Sandilands cut him off, saying: "What a c**khead you turned out to be Ernie. Get out of here, I'm not interested."

I know who Ernie but who is the sandilands man? I have lived most of my life with PNG and Australian Aboriginal people and don't like ignorant and uniformed people. Good work Ernie

Good on ya Ernie for taken it up to no-talent Sadielands. You have told him what most people think of Kylie S already, that Kylie S is a wanker.

Good on you Ernie, I am constantly amazed the the low life sandiland gets given work. The people who employ it are the real problem.

Sandilands particular brand of " humour" is often far from funny, and in fact at times can be downright sickening. Ernie is too much of a gentleman to stand for Sandilands insensitive sick idea of an interview. IMO far to intelligent too.

Im sorry Ernie that you were treated this way. Ernie Dingo is one of the true gentlemen of Australian television. Kyle is rude arrogant and takes any enjoyment out of any TV show he is on. Unfortunately the mouse called Jackie that he shares his radio show with wouldnt have it in her to stand up to him in a situation like this. How these people can be called entertainers is amazing to me.

I agree - who is the Sandilands ??? The stupid egoist that rubbishes people before they rubbish him .. Why do you give him media space?? - He is an affront to the Australian broadcasting - Imagine how visitors will view or listen to him Uggggghh Give him more Eernie !!!

Kyle Sandilands makes great money from insulting people - just like Paris Hilton makes money from being, well - Paris and that loud-mouthed chef whose name I can't remember makes money from screaming at his staff. I heard there's a new TV show coming out about the Veronicas - ridiculous. If people in Australia stopped just listening to whatever's on the radio/ TV, "people" like Kyle Sandilands wouldn't be paid for their bad attitudes and the problem would be solved.

It be well shared already that Sandilands is positioned in his role both on radio and on television to bring about that degree of controversy. Why is that good? Probably for its connection with ratings, and as such, commercial connections. Is Sandilands such a wanker in real life.... Probably not. But does his ability to create situations on live tv/radio attract the attention of others? HELL YEAH! Even this paper lends from the whole "Dingo attacks...." as to allude to an animal attack...

Ernie is the Wanker, if he thought it was going to be a free plug he's a fool. Kyle was just having fun, its all about publicity for Ernie after all, what a wanker

I've never liked Kyle Sandilands but I've got to admit, after listening to that, Ernie Dingo was being precious. He had a chip on his shoulder and he was itching for a fight from the very beginning. And whats with that fake aboriginal drawl he goes on with? I've never understood that. I've heard him speak in real life before and that slow, baby talk he bungs on isn't his natural voice. Its almost as though hes trying to perpetuate a stereotype that all aboriginals are slow and speak like that.

Until the rest of the 2DayFM listeners vote with their radio pressing button fingers and swiitch stations when this drongo is on, he will continue to spew out the utter garbage he has so consistently done over the last few years. Thankfully his big brother stint was short and severed, obviously he made no fans there. Wake up Sandilands and get a life. C grade celebrities....sheesh.

I've never seen or heard Ernie Dingo overreact to a situation, however I have heard Kyle regularly berate guests and incite arguments which is why I consider Ernie to be a genuine and reasonable person deliberately targetted by Kyle for the publicity...poor show Kyle and well done Ernie for pointing it out....

sorry ernie, it serves you right for thinking that promoting your new show on kyle and jackie o's was a good call. everybody knows that the type of people who subscribe to their radio show are a-holes. why on earth would you want anything to do with these morons!!? kyle and jackie could not care less about what you do, they are only interested in themselves. you should have known better.

kyle doesnt use humour, he uses shock ocker tactics-not funny at all (to me), but is to other dickheads. such a waste of money(companys), brains(listener) & airtime. & i wish jackie would show more than her shoulders(frumpy dresses)

Sad thing is. Kyle may not really think what he says. He is a man quite happy to say whatever might get the highest profile, or biggest reaction. I think he lacks integrity big time. It takes people like Ernie to expose Kyle for what he really is. And hopefully the networks will see that a 'commercial wanker' only has a finite life. In the end, ozzies will see the him for what he is - a stooge of the highest order.

did anyone actually listen to the interview??? kyle in no way provoked ernie to act in such a way. regardless of what you think about kyle, ernie was out of touch and made himself sound and look like an idiot. reminded me of his dismal performance on it takes two when he walked off live t.v.

I'm huge fan of 92.9 and love Hamish and Andy. As soon as they finish, I change to Nova purely because I cannot stand the Kyle and Jackie O show. Their interviews are painful and their stories of experience are hugely over-emphasised. Hey, we don't have to listen to them though, we all have the choice to change the dial. We can only blame ourselves for listening.

Everyone loves Ernie and TV would and has been the poorer without him. Sadly, Ernies absence has left a little hole for nobodies like Kyle Sandilands and people like him to try and do their best to entertain. Clearly it's not working. If I remember rightly, both Kyle & Jackie left their mark on 'Big Brother' which was dropped all too quickly by their TV network? It's time Radio did the same. Kyle you're a wanker, Ernie I look forward to your show with interest. Ynost

Ernie you are 100% spot on. I dont understand how Kyle is in the public eye. Everyone I work with thinks he is a wanker!! We switched the station in our office over to Mix due to KS. 2 day FM would do better to hire someone who is actually likeable - rather than this twit

What, are you people all for real!? Did anyone of you actually here the discussion live on air? Ernie Dingo completly over-reacted. Yes Kylie can be a shock jock at times but this clearly wasn't one of the occassions. I think Ernie got out of the wrong side of the bed that morning and he seemed on edge from the moment the interview began. Grow up Ernie- i've lost all respect!
