Karl Stefanovic is on a mission, and it may not be to get the boot from Channel Nine, as some in the media have speculated. The Today program host is clearly reinventing his brand from a “sweet, gentle, funny, cheeky and silly bloke who wouldn’t harm a fly because he’s talking to grandmas and kids going off to school” into something quite different: an Aussie version of Joe Rogan. His podcast interview with controversial far-right figure Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, AKA Tommy Robinson, which was swiftly pulled down within a day, has led to an impasse with his current employer Channel Nine. Some reports have suggested Stefanovic has been axed, although Nine did not confirm or deny these reports at the time this article was published. Reported by Arvind Hickman.
