Journalist Phil Rothfield has revealed the cause behind an argument he had with 2GB Radid personality Darryl Brohman.
The Daily Telegraph reported that Rothfield candidly shared why he had a fallout with Brohman just before they were set to go to air on 2GB’s Continuous Call Team in 2019.
Rothfield shared he felt the fallout with Brohman stemmed from a disagreement about Rothfield writing an article about Erin Molan and Andrew Johns refusing to work together.
The Daily Telegraph reported that Rothfeld said: “I had history at 2GB, I stormed out and dropped the headset one day. I had done a story on Erin Molan and Andrew Johns’ refusal to work together. It became quite a major story, and Darryl Brohman didn’t like it.
“Just as we are about to go on air he gave it to me and it was quite heavy. So I took the headset off and walked out. The reason I (walked out) was that I was worried I was going to blow up if we had gone on air, and I just didn’t want to risk it.”
Rothfield also added: “I was really disappointed, and I thought Erin needed to be stood up for.
“I was disappointed that Channel 9 didn’t really do anything about it at the time, so I wrote it.”
