Radio row goes superNova
Queensland Pride

The row over on-air jokes about transsexuals on Brisbane's Nova 106.9 FM has ramped up considerably, with the Australian Transgender Support Association of Queensland lodging a complaint with the Anti-Discrimination Commission Queensland, Nova DJ Meshel Laurie launching an extraordinary attack on trans activist Robyn Whittaker and LGBT people 'lacking in humour', and noted gay activist Gary Burns weighing into the issue.

The developments come in the wake of three on-air incidents which have drawn the ire of queer activists.

(NB: Nova 106.9 is Brisbane's top rated radio station)
