I think we should have the two from the Austrailian talk show who did the prank call, be left alone in a room with the nurse's family and loved ones....

Yes, it's a terrible situation Rick.

Of course our thoughts are with the familys concerned, but who could have thought such a prank would go so terribly wrong, so I guess we need to feel for the Australian broadcasters too.

Had it not developed like this the broadcasters would have been remembered, it would have been seen as funny maybe? However, they will now be remembered for the wrong reasons, and those reasons will probably destroy them also.

Will be interesting to see what the autopsy reveals...wonder if she had an problem no one knew about also. I am just now finding out what all this talk is about. Yes, prayers would be nice. In any circumstances.

very sad what happened.

Okay, they couldn't foresee that, but what was going to be the joke? Getting some private information? A nurse hanging up because she knew it was a joke?

Strange humour down under.

I read it has not only cost a nurse her life, but also the presenters have really felt the backlash on this one. The radio station is loosing some big advertising contracts worth thousands as companies want to distance themselfs from the the whole affair.
