Jones – whose show is simulcast to Brisbane's 4BC and Canberra's 2CC – initially issued a statement saying his comments had been "misinterpreted" on Thursday afternoon, but did not apologise. He thenLater on Friday, Jones wrote to Ms Ardern to apologise, as well as announcing his error publicly.
By that stage, ME Bank had pulled advertising following a campaign by Sleeping Giants – an organisation that pressures advertisers to, in its own words, "make racism, bigotry and misogyny less profitable" – and feminist activism group Mad F---ing Witches. Snooze followed, posting that it took Jones' comments "very seriously" and had pulled all advertising, with no other ads planned for the station., would be terminated if he made "any recurrence of commentary of this nature".But advertisers on Monday have continued to announce their departure with at least three more pulling the pin.
jennynoise Many more can advertise with Alan Jones
jennynoise As a marketer I can’t imagine what type of business would want to be associated with this person.
jennynoise The show doesn’t stand up on its own merits without advertisers $(unlike ABC) and that’s an indictment of his show’s reach. Interesting to see who paid to advertise up until now knowing his background. For those who did , it’s putting them in the spotlight also for their greed.
jennynoise But Alan Jones could be total tool's poster boy!
JaneCaro jennynoise Oh the irony! If there ever was a total tool..
martaduss jennynoise Thanks Marta. Unbelievable behavior. Unfortunately a lot of it started at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.
jennynoise Tools did the tool
jennynoise Thank you to the business people. Please lets find someone decent who uses articulate language to promote healthy respectful debate, unity, humility and decency.
jennynoise Oh well, back to Bunnings for me.. TotalToolsFTG
jennynoise Tool and Jones in the same sentence seems appropriate
jennynoise It's a shame because most of his audience are Total Tools.
LeipzigSyd jennynoise What a shame...completely appropriate!
jennynoise So all the previous fascist, racist, sexcist, ClimateChange denying comments by dim wit AlanJones were just fine for TotalTools ? auspol
jennynoise Well you must keep in mind that Mr Jones is also a Total Tool at times.🛠
jennynoise Maybe he will pull his head in now? Then again I doubt it 🤷♂️
jennynoise Total tools all right
canamaya jennynoise Total Tools are total tools
jennynoise They called it not him...they are of course totally correct...Total Tools!
jennynoise Perhaps totaltools are the aptly named advertisers?
jennynoise Truth hurts.
jennynoise The irony !!! AlanJonesISaTotalTool
jennynoise 2GB873 you will find a fresh new voice for a decrepit old one. Give it a go.
jennynoise TotalToolsFTG by name; Total Tools by nature.
jennynoise What total tools to do that...
jennynoise Boycott KoalaMattress, Bunnings (Wesfarmers) AMart, Totaltools, BigW (woolworths Wesfarmers) AnytimeFitness Consumers only want good products/service, they don't want PC/Politics/Woke nonsense over anything, & certainly not over a bit of Aussie Colloquialism.
jennynoise 75% of total tools customers are AJ fans Bunnings will be laughing all the way to the bank
jennynoise Let em pull there snake oil ads
jennynoise Bloody TotalToolsFTG now. Consumers want good products and service. We don't want PC/Woke/Political nonsense from our suppliers. If you want to play those games, I for one am serious about boycotting you. All over a bit of Aussie Colloquialism.
jennynoise Don’t you mean the Toolshed
jennynoise That’s quite a development because if ever there was a company that was suited to remain loyal to AlanJones you would think it would be the appropriately named “Total Tools”!
jennynoise Well done TotalToolsFTG
jennynoise Sadly don’t listen to AlanJones but I would actively avoid the advertisers that do advertise on his show if I did listen to him. Can I get a list of these companies to avoid without having to wade through his BS
jennynoise I would have thought Alan Jones being sponsored by Total Tools was highly appropriate for Australia’s biggest tool.
jennynoise Alan Jones is the best Orator in the country. Our world will be backward without him. His cover of current affairs, Politics, jokes, music, arts, sport - comes with unbelievable research & forethought. Many advertisers would snap opportunity to be in same league as Jones.
jennynoise I have never heard of Total Tools or some of the other companies that have pulled their advertisements. Another reason might be a financial decision and using 2GB as an excuse. I will continue to listen to 2GB.
jennynoise It would have been awesome if “Total Tools” was the last and only Alan Jones advertiser.
JaneCaro jennynoise While I do not support Alan Jones use of Oz expressions of put a sock in it, let’s recall they are oz slang phrases. Let’s put the comment in context. Let him damage his own reputation what’s left of it.
jennynoise slpng_giants_oz MadFckingWitch hamishNews
jennynoise Alan Jones IS a Total Tool
jennynoise Blah blah blah blah. Jones will survive. Advertisers will fill the spots. He has it on a string.
jennynoise In a way it’s a shame, their name is almost perfect for Jones. *scours Google for ‘Prehistoric Bileous Misogynist Tools’.
jennynoise Redneck parrot needs to go.
JaneCaro jennynoise 😛😛😂😂😂 can’t make this stuff up totaltool
jennynoise Lets hope 2GB evaporates into thin air, never to be heard of again.
jennynoise Total Tools? I suppose it takes one to know one.
JaneCaro jennynoise Wow when even total tools pull their ads you know he’s on the outer. 🤣
jennynoise Total Tools, very appropriate
jurylady5 jennynoise In shocking news Total Tools prove they're not totally tools.
JaneCaro jennynoise Total tools does sound appropriate for 2GB.
jennynoise Proving they’re not ...
p_hannam jennynoise Well done TotalToolsFTG Just make sure you don’t go back when the dust settles
jennynoise I'll say it again....... they could stay on- perfectly describes the entire 2GB outfit.
jennynoise They will, be back when they do a bit of research on this NZ PM. Nasty background.
jennynoise So the phrase “put a sock in it “ is now on the list of offensive phrases.... good god Australia what has got in to you? I suppose “fair suck of the sav “ will be the next ?!!!🤪🤪🤪💩💩💩
jennynoise 😂
jennynoise Alan will be advertising toilet rolls soon enough
jennynoise Follow the leader by these so-called PC businesses usually influence by militant females. They will be back Alan when sales fall away.
jennynoise I can see why ‘Total Tools’ thought Jones would be a good fit for advertising, but clearly they have their standards.....👍
jennynoise Very happy to amplify advertisers quitting Jones town.
jennynoise Total tools should be 2GB’s slogan.
jennynoise Never heard of them auspol
jennynoise Total Tools sound as though they were made to advertise on Alan Jones’ show.
jennynoise ... Total Tools? ..bWahaaaaaa
jennynoise Cool. Won’t be shopping there again!
jennynoise What goes around comes around.
jennynoise Odd move from Total Tools.
roberthulands jennynoise Ironic really, Total Tool should be the only ones to stay!!!
jennynoise Funny, with him being a total tool I would’ve thought this would be advertising genius to stay on.
jennynoise That’s a bit unfair. Nobody does total tool like the parrot.
jennynoise Total tools?says it all really.
jennynoise Is that irony? Total Tools fails to back a total tool!!
jennynoise Total Tools? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
jennynoise Please keep identifying the companies & products which sensible freedom-loving Aussies should boycott.
jennynoise I mean 4 shite companies .. AJ won’t care nor will the listeners
jennynoise I have just started listening to him and he is excellent 2GB873 ..
jennynoise The man is a Total Tool
jennynoise Glad the ‘she needs a couple of backhands’ comment finally got them over the line
jennynoise Total Tools are Total Fools
jennynoise Total Tools sounds like the perfect advertiser for Jones.
jennynoise I thought they were the audience not the advertiser
jennynoise Never heard of Total tools not to worry
jennynoise 2GB are TotalToolsFTG
jennynoise Total Tools. Jones and Hadley? Can’t be.
jennynoise Total tools are living up to their name. ABSOLUTETOOLS
jennynoise His behaviour clearly shows a consisted effort of an arrogant disregard for women ! The repeated apologies are boring and lack authenticity ! 2GB are complicit in allowing him the privilege of the platform ! Advertising $$ is loud and clear that they won’t be 👏🏻👏🏻
jennynoise Alan Jones: Total Tool.
jennynoise Like all the dinosaurs before him, time for the dinosaur that is Alan Jones to become extinct.
jennynoise Get this man off radio Who is the real bludger You be the judge!! Alan Jones Franking Credits from Macquarie media $4m stake over $30k per annum tax Free Government handout Newstart recipient $12,732 per annum
jennynoise GOOD
jennynoise Total tools, another one to the boycott list. gowokegobroke
jennynoise Total Tools want nothing more to do with a total tool.
jennynoise The names “Total Tools” and “Alan Jones” seemed such a good fit
dcrispin7 jennynoise Think you mean advertisers losing more sales. They play a foolish game choosing to pursue virtue signalling & social engineering. Will they be able keep this up consistently or are we seeing an anti Jones hit from certain corporate leaders? Corporate “moralising” harms Australia
jennynoise Hey AlanJones time to hit the bricks son. You are yesterday’s news and the country would be much better off if you closed your mouth and kept it shut. Time to find a holiday shack in the bush...thoughts, prayers, gratitude etc.
jennynoise SockJock is a TotalTool. AlanJones
jennynoise Oh get over it... There's a growing number of kiwis who really want the minority appointed parttimePM to STFU and go away. We're with Alan Jones on this one! MAGANZ MAKE ARDERN GO AWAY from NEW ZEALAND
MadFckingWitch jennynoise Just a bunch of tools!
jennynoise Who has heard of total tools? A company that no one has heard of - so what? But go woke, go broke
Bill_FJ_Quinn jennynoise Total Tools all right.
jennynoise More. MORE. M O R E.
jennynoise Well Total Tools are aren't they.
jennynoise They should have stayed and had Alan and Ray as brand ambassadors.
jennynoise If the Total Tools are jumping ship, the end is nigh for Shock Jock Jones🤪
jennynoise Why do people listen to this vile and contemptuous man ?
jennynoise When they start losing ratings they need to look no further than him. What a tosser.
jennynoise corporates bullied by the left wing extremists again pulling ads from 2GB873
jennynoise Total Tools sponsoring Jones, how massively appropriate.
jennynoise Really. I wouldve thought it was the perfect place for them to advertise!!
jennynoise Who?
jennynoise Total Tools? But they're the perfect sponsor for him!
jennynoise Go Woke Go Broke, 8 weeks will tell that these little companies cashflow will dry up, self inflicted 🤣
jennynoise Sounds like an appropriate name!
jennynoise Bet this will not stop SMH and your cohort of journalists interviewing him. So let’s ask who the Total Tools are?
jennynoise But Jones is a total tool?
geoffsmith55 jennynoise Jones is a liability in anyone’s language and would have been asked in any kind of business, but.... “Who’s rooting who down there at 2GB”?
jennynoise I wish this idiot would shove at least two pairs of socks down his own throat Git away with too much for too long
jennynoise Nice to see that they’re not Total Fools!
jennynoise How inappropriate
jennynoise They will be replaced by smart businesses.
Peter_Fox59 jennynoise and businesses are lining up to fill these vacant spots
jennynoise Wonderful, it's time this shameless flog was given the arse.
jennynoise One total tool leaving another.
jennynoise Why are the others still standing by, and paying for, this character?
jennynoise Total Tools are total tools. GoWokeGoBroke
YaThinkN jennynoise Total tools. I thought that was a headline from TheShovel
jennynoise Total Tools, yeah not wrong there ! 😌
jennynoise I realise so many of our companies today are badly managed, but these companies withdrawing their advertising because of a slip of the tongue seem eager to demonstrate this. Even Ardern's deputy has had to try and cover up for her.
jennynoise The name of the company says it all really.
jennynoise But still Channel7 loves him.
jennynoise Total tools defunds total tool.
jennynoise The name says it all...Total tools 🤣
jennynoise Congrats. Alan has threatened a woman Prime Minister of another country with physical abuse.
jennynoise Total Tools. Got that right. See ya.
jennynoise Total tools not supporting Jones thats a cracker
jennynoise More boycott needed
Bishop64 jennynoise Good! Absolutely had a gutful of the lot of them. One down! Many more to go! A great start.
jennynoise Good on you and on mebank for doing the right thing.
jennynoise Could care less you won’t see any of it.
jennynoise Talk about cannibalism, you seem to delight in bagging your own at every chance. Why not get rid of Mac Sports and put Fitzsimons et al against him. Oops did that massive fail.
jennynoise Who else?
jennynoise They’re a prime sponsor for a ‘total tool’ 🙅🏼♂️
jennynoise You can add vw to the list too.
jennynoise Serves him right for attacking our gun-grabbing godess, Jassindre Armdrin, We'll instruct our Involuntary Product Inspection members to give Total Tools are wide berth too... along with Bunnings. They deserve people paying for their items. We love the wokeness. 💋
jennynoise Who righteously gives money to hatred and venom? There is a snowflakes chance in hell I'd buy anything from a firm that supports this odious misanthrope. MikeCarlton01
jennynoise Thankyou SMH for listing all the WOKE companys we will boycott.......
jennynoise I thought Total Tool was a description of Jones.
jennynoise They are that
jennynoise The power of the offended! flogs
jennynoise Total Tools pulls ads on the total tool.
jennynoise Ironic, considering Jones is a Total Tool himself.
jennynoise
jennynoise Well done total tools
jennynoise Maybe the offer of ‘one more chance’ was made too early by 2GB
jennynoise Hopefully they don’t rejoin when the dust settles
