‘He’s the worst newsreader ever!’ Kyle Sandilands slams Waleed Aly and claims The Project host is always trying to push a ‘lefty agenda’ like climate change on his TV show
Kyle Sandilands has called Waleed Aly ‘the worst newsreader ever’ during a sensational on air rant.
During a discussion on The Kyle and Jackie O Show on Wednesday, Kyle, 48, criticised Waleed, 41, for constantly pushing a ‘lefty agenda’ on The Project.
After guest Grant Denyer said that Waleed was the worst Family Feud player of all time, Kyle remarked: ‘He’s also the worst newsreader in history, have you noticed?’

‘No he’s not!’ Jackie responded, before Kyle launched into a rant against the TV host.
‘Probably a nice bloke, but he’s always trying to push that lefty agenda. Climate change this, ugh,’ he continued.
Jackie continued to defend the Gold Logie winner and even admitted that she was a regular viewer of The Project.

‘He is very knowledgeable and that’s why I actually like watching him because he explains things,’ she said.
‘He doesn’t explain things,’ Kyle shot back. ‘He explains what he wants YOU to think of things. That’s how dumb you are!’
He then criticised Jackie for getting ‘all her news from lefty Waleed and lefty Facebook.’

This isn’t the first time that Kyle has launched an on-air rant against Waleed.
Back in 2018, Waleed had controversially claimed that Kim Kardashian ‘achieved nothing’ by helping persuade US President Donald Trump to pardon a drug-offending grandmother serving a life sentence without parole in Alabama.
On The Kyle and Jackie O Show, the radio host unleashed on the university lecturer and Fairfax columnist for his remarks, calling him a ‘hypocritical flog’, a ‘whinging toad’, and a ‘snowflake lefty’.
At the time, Kim had just met with President Trump to ask him to give Alice Marie Johnson a presidential pardon – which he granted.

Kyle dedicated more than two minutes of his popular breakfast show to criticising Waleed after he put a negative spin on Kim’s actions and said that she’d ‘achieved nothing’.
He raged: ‘Kim does something good and Donald Trump pardons someone that probably really shouldn’t be in jail for life… and Waleed Aly has a problem with it!’
‘Because he’s such a snowflake lefty, that he can’t bring himself to ever say Trump did something good or Kim Kardashian did something good,’ he added.
‘Not everyone has to be a university graduate, up-themselves flog to be a decent person – so lay off, people!’
