A popular breakfast radio station broadcast in Australia on the 29th of July, 2009 was left in disarray when a radio stunt involving a 14 year old girl hooked up to a lie detector went horribly wrong. The fallout from the radio stunt resulted in the mother of the girl being blamed for not revealing the information before the stunt went to air however the radio show hosts Kyle & Jackie O were also at fault for facilitating the inappropriate radio stunt where minors are quizzed about their personal life. The hosts were also suspended from their positions as radio hosts. The hosts also did not implement the radio industry standard 7 second delay to ensure that inappropriate content would not be broadcast.
