Entertainment reporter Peter Ford says journalist brothers Karl and Peter Stefanovic will bounce-back after a private conversation about Channel Nine colleagues was leaked.

A phone conversation between the pair was overheard by an Uber driver who has since approached the media.

Peter tells Chris Smith a transcript released today, which details their discussion about executives, will “hit the brothers” but they’ll both recover.

“What Karl has said here according to this amazing recall of this Uber driver… it’s professional stuff.

“In the short term they’ll be fine and so they should be.

“Both of them have been violated terribly here. I still do think they’ve been victims of a horrible invasion of privacy.”
