It is worth noting that the receptionist who passed on the call and subsequently died did not give out any medical information, she simply put the call through.
She was a highly regarded professional nurse and not a receptionist.
+1we are all responsible for our own actions. The are responsible for being eejits, but thats not a criminal offence as far as i can tell.
The Australian DJ's must shoulder most of the blame for the tragedy. If the call was not made would the nurse have died? Furthermore, the DJ's were media trained and veterans of such situations and they were dealing with people who were not media trained.
I saw their pleas on the internet last night. They are as shallow as a puddle in July. "We were expecting that the phone would be hung up, that's all we wanted" (not an accurate quote).
Later last night I listened to an Irish DJ (shock-jock, I think they call some of them) screaming the innocence of the Australian DJ's.
That nurse was literally a lamb to their slaughter.
What a load of hysterical twaddle! How many dramatic exaggerations can you introduce into one post Leper! A 30 and 25 year old are described as veterans while a 46 year old nurse is described as lamb to the slaughter.The Australian DJ's must shoulder most of the blame for the tragedy.

I dont believe that 2 Australian DJs are responsible for her death. We are all responsible for our own actions. The are responsible for being eejits, but thats not a criminal offence as far as I can tell.
I also don't believe that the 2 DJ's are responsible for her death, however, their prank did contribute to it.I dont believe that 2 Australian DJs are responsible for her death.

You know for a fact that their pleas were shallow do you?
I certainly would not describe the DJs as veterans - as others have said, a pair of eejits would be more apt.
I guarantee you those "eejits" were each getting paid an awful lot more than the nurse they humiliated.
What has their salary got to do with it?
She wasn't the hospital was due to it's handling of issuing confidential information and not having the correct security protocols in place.This nurse was humiliated literally in front of the whole world and for what - the profit of a juvenile radio station.
I heard the clip of both nurses and was struck by their professionalism and their measured and kind words offered to what they thought was a concerned relative.
I would have thought that at the very least the radio station would have gained the consent of the individuals they sought to ridicule for profit.
That still doesn't answer why levels of pay are to be compared though?With rewards come responsibilities.

She was just a voice on a phone.
