Rumours swirl Karl Stefanovic was 'interviewed by management' over his role in Adrian Portelli scandal that saw Alex Cullen axed by network: 'He gets away with murder'


Rumours are swirling that Karl Stefanovic was questioned over his role in the Adrian Portelli scandal.

After selling his story to New Idea magazine, the driver revealed Karl had been criticising his former Today co-host Georgie Gardner during the private conversation. A Nine spokesperson told Daily Mail Australia: 'Nine has agreed with Today presenter and journalist Alex Cullen that he will finish with the network following a review into a recent incident.' The scandal kicked off when Portelli had grown tired of his long-used nickname 'Mr Lambo' and offered the cash reward to the first person to use his new moniker on air, with Cullen obliging on the Today show last Friday.
