Brenden's back

| I said they'd be mad to get rid of him, so I'm glad Mix 1065.FM has reinstated producer Brenden Wood. According to this report, the decision came after breakfast show Sonia Kruger threatened to walk unless the station reinstated Wood, who apparently copped the blame for Kruger's co-host Todd McKenney's on-air attacks on Channel 9's Mark Ferguson, leading to Nine withdrawing advertising from the station. (Are you following all this?) However, Mix boss Anthony Fitzgerald says the issue has been blown out of proportion. "Brenden just had a few days off but he'll be back on board tomorrow," Fitzgerald said yesterday. The station's next big challenge comes when McKenney fronts court over his arrest for drug possession. McKenney's defence, apparently, is that he was slipped a mickey, then somebody planted the stuff on him. Whatever the outcome, all this is publicity you simply couldn't buy. PS: I note that, during the entire drama, Wood's picture (right) and profile never disappeared from the Mix website. |
