Two radio hosts have outed a husband's Ashley Madison account live on air

The FBI have launched an investigation into the infidelity site hack.

A PAIR OF Sydney radio hosts have outed the Ashley Madison account of a suspicious wife’s husband live on air.

It followed the leaking on Tuesday of the personal details of some 32 million users of the affairs website from around the world. A site has since been set up to allow people to search the database for subscribers’ email addresses.

This morning Nova FM radio hosts Ryan ‘Fitzy’ Fitzgerald and Michael ‘Wippa’ Wipfli – whose breakfast programme is the third most-popular in their home market – took a call from a ‘Jo’, who suspected her husband might have something to hide.

“His hours have changed … and when that little thing came on the news about the Ashley Madison hack he sort of went a bit funny,” she said.

I asked him straight up and he said ‘don’t be stupid, we’re married, we’ve got two kids’ and I was like, OK, whatever.”

Fitzgerald then told the women they had put her husband’s into the system and it felt like they were “on Jerry Springer”.

“We’re putting them into this website right now and his details have revealed … that he’s actually on the website, Jo,” he said.

“Are you … serious? Are you freakin’ kidding me? These websites are disgusting,” the woman said, before hanging up.

Wipfli had an instant bout of regret, saying: ”Oooh, I don’t know if I should have done that. That hasn’t left me with a good feeling. What a horrible situation to be in.”

The radio spot was enough to leave a few listeners unimpressed, although Fitzgerald remained less apologetic than his co-host.

An investigation

Meanwhile, the US FBI has announced it was launching an investigation into the Ashley Madison hack and the subsequent data leak, which the Toronto-based infidelity website called “an act of criminality”.

A group of hackers identified as the “Impact Team” threatened to release the data unless the site was permanently shut down, citing the “fraud, deceit and stupidity of ALM (Ashley Madison owner Avid Life Media) and their members”.

The affairs site had been charging users $20 (€18) apiece for its “full delete function” with the promise that it would scrub all personal information in return for the payment.

BuzzFeed reported the function netted the company $2 million (€1.8 million) last year, although the figure came from leaked documents it hadn’t been able to verify.

    @Ole dan tucker: maybe ABP could give their workers some of the 170ml profit they made last year seeing as they refuse to pay the farmers as fair price.

    Their local one to me used to employ lots of Irish. Now its mostly eastern European as they don’t have to pay them as much.

    Owner is based in Luxembourg so the govt sees very little of it either

The processor has conceded.. some of the farmers are content with the concession but others still want more…sounds a bit like animal farm where the farmers want to be rich off some elses back while the workers processing the meat are the ones losing out. All men not created equally and some will get rich on others efforts…fact..it will never change

    @Fr. Fintan Stack: yes, the first one with the beef plan movement and the second with both of them last weekend. It doesn’t always go to a vote before pickets are lifted, in fact, the norm would be to lift pickets pending the ballot.
    Initially I supported the farmers, but their intransigence and expectation that only the other side should compromise has changed my view on that. How do you negotiate with a group that refuses to engage in collective bargaining, is prepared to screw colleagues and fundamentally engages in blackmail rather than negotiations?

    @SilexFlint: if the farmers are poor they are in the wrong business. If I wasn’t making money in my business I’d shut it down and go find work elsewhere. It seems that farmers have grants and subsidies to prop up there business which ultimately is funded by Mr & Mrs Tax payer. So maybe the poor farmers need to look at there business model and asses if it’s loss making and if so move on. I understand that some farms are in the family centuries or decades but that’s sentimental.

Factories are laying workers off to force farmers off the picket Wouldn’t it be interesting if the workers downed tools and joined forces with the farmers… maybe then we’d see the factories coming back into line and paying all a fair slice of their very large profits.

    Beef farmers all over the world are slowly going out of business. I’ve watched a good few videos from farmers in different countries. The model of the farmers rearing their animals and selling them to corporations who make massive profits and refuse to pay a fair price is going to take out small farmers.

    The small farmer will care and look after their animals. The factory farms won’t be so kind. We already see this in effect in Irish pig farms where they are caged up all day. Same with most of the factory chicken farms. These farms are farmer and the processor.

    People would be horrified if they knew where there cheap food originated from. We need to support small family farms who will look after their animals and the environment. These are the people protesting at the gates of these factories. We need to support them in their protest to get a fair price and to hand the farms down to the children. Otherwise we will have scandal after scandal from these big factory farms. Ie horse meat scandal….

    If the industry carries on with the status quo those workers will end up losing their jobs permanently and the only beef on offer will be of poor quality and with a much higher carbon footprint.

The national herd size in ireland has doubled in the last decade. they’ve flooded the market with beef which causes the prize to go down and they’ve all done it becuase they want to be one of the rich farmers.

    Food for thought, excuse the pun. Talking to a lot of farmers and a kepak rep this week. The one thing they said was, nobody knows who these people are on the blockades. They aren’t farmers. Also, most farmers are happy with the prices, it’s a very very small minority that are producing poor quality product that can’t get a good price that are unhappy. They haven’t upped their own game. They buy cheap calf’s and expect the premium prices 20 months down the road. Like all walks of life, there is good and bad in every trade. These bad farmers can’t accept it. What’s on these blockades is paid bullies. End it now. You’re a disgrace whoever you are.

    Many publications have scapegoated the farmers with biased delivery of information to their listeners. The fact that the broadcasting authority has no rules around this shows its incapacity and highlights the need for more legislation to tackle rouge publication like that.The voices of farmers get an article collectively for their case, while any individual on the other side have been gave headlines with individual articles.

    ‘Long term damage’ to an industry taking so much a percentage of the profits that the farming business has became nonviable, while beef has never sold as much and framing practices have only improved.

    There has been no questioning of the very fact that these factories can treat their employees in this way, simply turfing them out when business is low!

    There has been no outcry at a culture of having the farmer penalized for giving their cattle a decent amount of years on the planet.

    There is little or no outcry from our press that a farmer can not see the slaughtering and butchering process to see if these factories are not paying fair and that their animals are being treated with respect.

    It stinks!

    It’s time to take the greedy factories and supermarkets out of the food chain. Open book cost plus pricing and no below cost selling. Ban alcohol from supermarket chains. Regulate to encourage smaller abattoirs and butchers to encourage them to sell locally sourced produce.

    Its about time humanity stopped eating animals. We are destroying the our environment by this excessive consumption on meat. The sooner the EU gets rid of farm subsidies and taxes meat consumption the better.

    Since the journal keeps deleting my comments, I’ll keep posting them :) after a prolonged analysis of the content and comments it can only be deduced that the journal is nothing more than a bad entertainment site. Copying articles from other sites, shockingly poor literacy standards and a hotbed for trolls

    The problem I have with it is that the supermarkets will just get suppliers from elsewhere. I like to buy Irish produce but I might not have much choice soon.
