She has a few haters,lol.
A petition calling for the sacking of Sky News journalist Kay Burley is approaching 50,000 signatures.

The petition follows around 1,100 complaints submitted to broadcasting watchdog Ofcom over Burley's confrontational interview with Nick Varney, CEO of Merlin Entertainment, the company that owns Alton Towers.

Burley grilled Varney on Sky News over the safety of the park's attractions, after four people were seriously injured on the Smiler rollercoaster last week.

She told him she was "sure [the families of the injured] are not interested in your sympathy at this stage" after he apologised for the accident.

The petition says Burley was "rude and patronising" to the CEO during the interview. Gareth Pugh, the person who started the petition, calls on Sky News to "act professional" and "issue an apology and sack Kay Burley."


For those concerned I was hard on Alton Towers boss, he'll get over it. Not sure those on his ride will be so quick to recover #perspective

She's so unprofessional and has no respect for those injured. She just wanted to interrogate him. Sack her.

Can't stand Kay Burley. Its wrong when news channels like sky and itv create their own news stories, something they both do quite frequently.

I remember her interviewing nigel farage, and she kept on repeating the same question, again and again, and she made herself look very stupid,

I do think people go a bit overboard about her.. truth is she has done remarkably well to be where she is today and defied a lot of odds. It's easy to see what she's trying to do - she wants to be a female Paxman basically and she's not the first interviewer to try and be this ultra-tough, imposing figure making their victim stutter over themselves and quake in their boots. Unfortunately she doesn't pull it of as well though.

It's not just her it's the sky interview style, Dermot Murnahan is the same.
