Statement on Chris Smith

2GB has today terminated the services of broadcaster Chris Smith.

The termination follows the Sky News Christmas party at the weekend, where Chris has conceded his behaviour was unacceptable, “apologising profusely” for his “drunken treatment” of women.

Nine’s Managing Director of Radio, Tom Malone said: “Chris’ behaviour represents a serious breach of his contract, and is not aligned with the values of 2GB.”

Nine has provided support to Chris in recent days, and will continue to offer that support as required.
