The Chaser creates radio ad targeting Alan Jones’ advertisers
Angry old men sure do give Triple M’s Radio Chaser a seemingly never-ending supply of potential targets, but this time, the team has focused its efforts on the man of the moment, Alan Jones.
In the wake of actual advertisers pulling their money from Jones’ 2GB radio show, The Chaser has made a radio ad for Jones to win back some revenue. And, it has an urgent call to action: “Advertise now, before all the boycotters come back in a few weeks once everything’s died down”.
Dr Mumbo notes Jones will be less than thrilled with being called a “grumpy, racist, woman hater”, after telling Nine News “The language being used about me is extraordinary”.
We’ve seen it in the US. The right will justify even the worst behaviour as long as they end up making money. You ever hear anyone on 2GB criticise Trump? The advertisers will trickle back. It’s all about money with the right side.
So does this ‘ad’ actually get aired anywhere?
Or is it just taxpayer-funded people doing stuff on the public purse?
zzzzzz
Hey Robbo,
This has nothing to do with the ABC.
The audio went to air on The Chaser’s Triple M radio show. Triple M is owned by Southern Cross Austereo, a publicly-listed company.
The audio does make it clear it’s on Triple M, but I’ll drop a line into the story in case anyone else is confused.
Thanks,

“The language being used about me is extraordinary” he says. Cool story bro, while the language he and his ilk use against women, people of colour, Muslims etc… is horrendous, dehumanising and in many cases incitement for violence.
How cynical: “Advertise now, before all the boycotters come back in a few weeks once everything’s died down”
To be fair to you this was perfectly obvious to anyone with a functioning brain
Thanks Vivienne. But I doubt that a RWNJ would worry about unimportant details like that.
@Anonymous you’ll find ‘satire’ in the dictionary. Under ‘s’.
That is all
Yawn.
Yes, you are boring
