2GB censors Penbo
It’s a tight squeeze, but Dr Mumbo welcomes David Penberthy and Alan Jones into irony corner.
Last week, Penbo wrote a column in which he burned his bridges with the 2GB host.
Today News Limited’s Penbo revealed that 2GB has axed his unpaid slot on the Steve Price show.
That’s the 2GB that hit out at the Sack Alan Jones campaign’s attack on free speech.
I quite like Mr Penberthy. I met him a few years ago at the Caxtons expecting not to like him. It was at the height of some rather tabloid mucky stuff from the Tele and I asked him about it.
He was quite the opposite of what I expected. Keep up the good work

You can see them all sitting in their bell jar environment, nattering about the gross abuse of free speech by Penberthy, the lout who wields so much power with his blog. Jones, waving his butler for more carefully prepared nibbles. Singo, barracking. Tate looking wistfully at the revenue statement…..

Harsh treatment but I doubt Penbo will be surprised. When you make friends with rough people you can expect some rough treatment.
I’m impressed to see Penbo being honest/sticking up to Jones 2UE. Its not something I would expect from him given his continuous “Baghdad Bob/Comical Ali” act sticking up for News Ltd.
But sympathy and respect for this one. Did the right thing and got punished for it. I expect he still doesn’t regret it.

Well done Pembo for standing up to John Singleton’s right-wing aberration of talk-back radio. Associating with that lot isn’t going to do anyone’s career any good. They did you a favour Matt, so send Singo a big thank you – he’s hiding out somewhere.

Everytime I visit this website, my desk suddenly tilts downwards to the extreme left.
Penberthy uncloaked himself, his choice and he knew what could go wrong once published.
He got the Glaswegian Kiss from 2GB…to me the issue is not this result, but how dare the righties retaliate.

Oh, I notice also that Penberthy had unpaid appearances on 2GB…about what his opinions are worth.

Penberthy no doubt appeared on 2GB to stroke his own ego and grow his “profile”. He attacked one of the the station’s main bread winners and got punted. Boo hoo! Is he still romanticaly linked to Federal Labor Minister, Kate Ellis?
