Live TV always has it obvious problems, especially when the background has view of computer monitors of people working behind you. Australian Investment banker David Kiely became a huge hit on the internet when he was broadcast on Australia's Seven network looking at steamy shots of model Miranda Kerr while Macquarie Bank Spokesperson Martin Lakos was speaking to Channel 7 Reporter Chris Bathon on  Live TV.

The stage was set for an obvious firing of the banker but surprisingly, a new legion of his fans and Miranda Kerr, the model he was ogling, seem to have saved him.

And in an interview with Sydney's Daily Telegraph newspaper, Kerr said she would sign it.

"I am told there is a petition to save his job and of course I would sign it," she said.

It appears her pledge did the trick.

Kiely's employer Macquarie said it had completed an internal review of the events and action had been taken.

"He will remain an employee of Macquarie," the statement said.

"Macquarie and the employee apologise for any offence that may have been caused."

There are suggestions Mr Kiely was set up by a colleague who sent him the email containing the images for a joke.

It seems like he was opening attachments from his email and it is quite possible that some colleague played a harmless prank on him that went pretty harmful.

This is a  crazy world, when a man cannot look at nude pictures of hot models at work. But shouldn't he be working instead?
