Actually I can empathise with Mel Greig & Michael Christian too - it's just a tragedy from many angles. IMO it's unlikely that the nurse concerned ended her life due solely to the hoax call, but it certainly seems to have been a contributing factor. I'm sure the radio duo never dreamed that there could be consequences so dire to one of their pranks, and it will no doubt stay with them for the rest of their lives. To be fair to them, they were simply doing what seems to have become common practice for that industry, and their station in particular - and that's what I think needs a shake-up. It's a cop-out to say the they're simply catering to the type of humour the listening audience is tuning into - the typical "prank-call" generally relies on belittling or humiliating it's target - even the so-called harmless prank calls usually leave someone embarrassed and shamefaced. It's cheap humour in my opinion - just like a stand-up comedian who gets his laughs by belittling others - I find the clever ones far funnier than the cruel.
