Bullying is a very strong term.
WikiQuoted: Bullying may be defined as the activity of repeated, aggressive behavior intended to hurt another person, physically or mentally.
So no, it isn't bullying.

All of which, didn't seem to be anticipated. Call made on Sydney radio station, prolly expected it to remain within Australian contexts? But in this day and age where information can spread like wildfire, people need to rethink media ethics (which is being reviewed at this point).
As for who is PARTLY responsible, everyone involved at the radio station is definitely culpable.
Once again though, I firmly believe that they were other circumstances that added to her distress.
Additionally, the hospital should be responsible for being so sloppy in its verification process as well. The second nurse didn't think twice to check?
Scotland Yard are NOT calling it a suicide. And until an inquest has been done and an official COD can be determined, we shouldn't be calling it a suicide either.
