The Daily Aus · Why did Nine fire Karl Stefanovic? · 28 Jun 2026 podcast

I've said this so many times on this podcast, Australia does not have a legal protected right to free speech. matched

Yeah, exactly. matched

And he also, I believe, is filming that in the UK. matched

The background looked like England to me without going to the detail of verifying where it was. matched

So I think he's sort of talking about like the ethical concept that we should be able to have freedom of speech and freedom of debate. matched

Well, interestingly, Nine also agreed that freedom of speech is important. matched

So Nine executive news director Fiona Deer said, quote, journalists have an obligation to ask difficult questions. matched

Part of what makes us tick is trying to understand why people are the way they are or think the way they think. matched

we welcome open debate and challenging norms with constructive, balanced arguments. matched

So getting to there, what I sort of noticed in the podcast is that he wasn't really drilling him in a way that would have been within the scope of his remit as someone who says he's a journalist with a good bullshit meter. matched

Yeah, and something that when you and I were talking to TDA co-founder Sam about this last week, he brought up the fact that Nine is a publicly traded company. matched

They have a relationship with their shareholders. matched

Yeah. matched

So Nine is balancing all of these different obligations as a primarily news, primarily TV company. matched

So all of these things are of note and part of this discussion. matched

And Nine's stocks have dipped very slightly, but they were already kind of trending down. matched

So I don't know that we can necessarily see any impact of this on their shares as yet, but it is always a consideration for a company like that. matched

I do, and that is amazing news for sad girls everywhere, which is that Phoebe Bridges is finally back. matched

We love Phoebe Bridges. matched

Six long years after that last wonderful album, Punisher. matched
