Kyle & Jackie O Stumble In Sydney’s Brekkie Radio Ratings

KIIS 1065’s Kyle Sandilands and Jackie ‘O’ Henderson have gone and undone all their hard work in the last radio ratings survey to end the year behind 702 ABC Sydney, while it’s a totally different story for the station’s drive team of Dave Hughes and Kate Langbroek.
