2GB haemorrhages advertisers and Jones loses appeal against court ruling that he indulged in "racial vilification"

 
From Change.org
 
Brisbane Times 2 October 2012:
 
The list of sponsors pulling out of broadcaster Alan Jones's radio program following his comments about the prime minister's father is growing…
 
The 2009  Administrative Decisions Tribunal ruling, that in a radio broadcast on 28 April 2005  Alan Jones was guilty of racial vilification was upheld on appeal this week.
 
SBS World News 2 October 2012:
 
Opposition Leader Tony Abbott says Alan Jones' comments about the prime minister's late father are "wrong, unacceptable and offensive" but he won't be boycotting the 2GB broadcaster or banning him from Liberal fundraisers.
 
It would appear that the only person still afraid of Alan Jones is Australia’s Federal Opposition Leader, Tony Abbott.

    Yambaman,
    If you insist on trying to insert homophobic statements North Coast Voices will not post your latest comment.
    The assertion you made was incorrect and possibly defamatory in light of the fact that police charges were withdrawn.
    Happy to publish if you resubmit your latest post with the offending part of the first para removed.
    Please also be aware that extensive verbatim quoting of published articles exceeds fair use provisions, so you will need to limit the quote to under 25% of text and link to the article you are quoting, unless the document is a media release.
