It's been all over the news this week, the prank call by two Australian DJs to King Edward the 7th hospital where the pregnant Duchess of Cambridge was being treated.
The DJs are defending themselves saying that they didn't think they'd get put through, as a result of their stupid, childish prank the nurse who took the phone call took her own life less than a day later.
Some say the nurse was too gullible but would you have reacted
any differently? We are all instilled with a need to be helpful
(read the art of deception by Kevin Mitnick) and would your first
reaction be a) oh my god I'm talking to the actual queen or
b) why isn't she using William's mobile number this must be a hoax.
This was social engineering and a woman is dead because
of it. Public opinion should take these two idiots off the air.
I would've done the same as the nurse.
