Radio Host Calls For “Idiot” Colleague’s Sacking Over Live Interview With Politician

A NOVA Entertainment radio host has lambasted one of his colleagues over an on-air interview with a controversial Queensland politician.

David Penberthy (pictured above), who co-hosts the breakfast program on Adelaide’s FIVEaa, took to Twitter yesterday to call for the sacking of colleague Andrew Reimer, who handles the weekend evening slots on the station.

Penberthy’s criticism concerned an interview Reimer conducted on Sunday night with Fraser Queensland senator Fraser Anning (which you can listen to here), who has recently been condemned for attending a far right rally in Melbourne and getting taxpayers to foot the bill.
