9 Mar
Summary
- Stefanovic may not extend his multi-million dollar TV contract.
- He reportedly had informal talks about a move to radio.
- He regrets his past role in promoting COVID-19 vaccinations.
Speculation is mounting that Karl Stefanovic is preparing to leave his high-profile position on the Today show. Reports indicate it's unlikely he will extend his current multi-million dollar contract, which concludes at the end of the year. Instead, he is reportedly considering a full-time transition to radio.
Informal discussions regarding a radio move have allegedly occurred recently with the Australian Radio Network (ARN). Stefanovic has expressed uncertainty about his future plans for next year, fueling these rumors.
Adding to the shifting landscape, Stefanovic has publicly voiced regret about his past support for COVID-19 vaccinations. He admitted to questioning his role in the 'This is Our Shot' campaign, believing the media should focus on education rather than direct promotion.
His current contract with Nine reportedly involved a 12-month extension last year, accompanied by a significant pay cut. This period also granted him permission to launch his independent podcast, 'The Karl Stefanovic Show'.
