try putting yourselves in their shoes. "portraying themselves as the victims" is a stupid interpretation. 99% of people, except for psychopaths and City Agro, would feel mortified, shattered, distraught to think something they'd done had resulted in someone's death.

Happy to ruin her career though werent they?
 
i disagree completely and utterly 100%. anyone can be duped.

To put it bluntly, you're wrong. Anything involing the royal family and the sharing of sensitive information means she would have lost her job and never work in such a situation again. Simple as.
 
The one thing i would suggest is that Who in there right mind would think that the Queen would ring on an outside line ? ffs, she must has both Williams and Kates mobiles.

This is the point that i find worrying. It could well be that when the dust settles The Hospital will take a large share of the blame for it.

A properly maintained switchboard and this would not have got past first base.
 
But she didn't share any information did she? I thought she merely transferred the call to the ward where the Duchess was?

Yes, which led to the information being shared. It wouldve been impossible for her to carry on in that role. The Daily Mail and other right wing tabs wouldve made sure of it.
 
I would have thought the Daily Mail etc would be more concerned by who actually gave the information out rather than a nurse who simply transferred the call?

The person giving out the info is under the impression that the caller has already been vetted by the call handler for suitability.

Look, I dont even know why we're discussing this - she plain and simple would not have carried on in that job and back to the point the DJs knew that and were happy with those consequences.

Possibly if the call was taken by a switchboard operator, but a nurse?

And I think you credit the DJ's with too much intelligence. I suspect they didn't anticipate getting through anyway so wont have thought about the consequences if they did. That said, the radio station ought to have obtained permission before airing the call anyway.

You may be right, but unless you work in the upper echelons of the Trust I don't think you can be so bold in your statements.

to put it bluntly, you're wrong. you've evidently had to work for some stupid and soulless employers, but they're not all as pig-headed and stupid as the ones you've suffered under.

simple as.

you just can't see it, can you? i had you down as far more intelligent than this.

has the nurse who actually gave out the information lost her job?

the answer is no, and that proves that everything you're saying is rubbish.

you think the djs knew someone would lose their job? are you totally insane????

no don't answer, i know already.

A spokeswoman for the hospital said the hospital management "were very clear that there were no disciplinary issues in this matter".

Both the nurses involved had been offered "full support" and "it was made clear they were victims of a cruel journalistic trick", she said.
 
So do I. Its not there fault the nurse hung herself. FFS, phone pranks have been going on for years and when all said and done neither the hospital nor the royal family have blamed the nurse from news reports.

IMO, the radio station execs should take the blame for not doing things properly and getting permission to play the recordings (which under aussie law they need) plus it think that when the dust settles Other factors will have been the reason she hung herself. Its just all to neat to blame this one instance. imo

But yes a very sad situation.

They've reaped what they've sown.

Tough.
 
It was a prank phone call. They didn't fly all the way to England and kill her.

Whether you think pranks like these are funny or not is a different matter entirely.

Anyone who thinks these pranks are 'a laugh' is a nailed-on sustainable ISO-compliant de luxe UTTER ****.

But then 99% of people don't ring hospitals hassling busy dedicated workers looking after ill people, fishing for info, hoping to fool people acting in good faith, do they?

You actually read anybody's comments? We've got what you think of prank phone calls.

The matter is, why are they being blamed for her death? She committed suicide & they didn't get any info.

they're not my idea of funny. i find that kind of thing tediously dull even it it's april 1st. however it was not by any stretch of the imagaination a predictable outcome nor was it in any way reckless.

Not a predictable outcome?

Tough.

Neither was opening a gate at Hillsborough, dropping a match at Valley Parade etc

I get the impression you've read some of the posts on the thread but are struggling to analyse the arguments being set forth.

They are being blamed for her death because they made the phone call, and revelled in it.
