This doesn't make much sense to me??

Christine Assange was waiting on hold while Darren James, Nick McCallum and Howson interviewed Sam Castro from the Wikileaks Australian Citizens Alliance regarding Ecuador's decision to grant political asylum to Wikileaks founder Julian Assange.

Howson called Castro a hypocrite for supporting Assange's decision to seek political asylum in Ecuador, a country Howson claims has a 'poor' human rights record.

"You people are so full of it, you make me want to spew up," Howson said.

"You support free speech yet you're going on about a country that restricts free speech," he added.

"I won't be doing an interview with you because you're acting like a pig,'' Ms Assange said.

Howson responded by screaming on air: "Sieg Heil! Sieg Heil! Sieg Heil!''

Ms Assange then hung up the phone.

Howson claims he was censored by Ms. Assange because she denied him the chance to state his opinion:

"These people just want to come on air and give us their propaganda and they don't want any tough questions."

Where does the Nazi refernce come in? Is Howsen Jewish? No. He's a Roman Catholic. A homosecsual one at that.

Listen to him in his element.

Is he still alive?
Hadnt heard of him since the early 1980's when my mum used to watch the Mike Walsh Show on midday TV.

Howson the douche

Once a douche always a douche

Howson needs to stick to his forte of describing outfits worn by drag queens in mardi gras.

Apparently he fell in love with an American woman and moved to hollywood for 10 years All those years of pretending to like boobies, took its toll.

'Up yours, darling': Howsen slammed over radio meltdown

This bloke is obviously as described by Assange's mother

reply to post by Samuelis


it's a tactic to get him to reveal himself.

they're probably not sure if he's still in the embassy or not.

standard procedure when they haven't heard from the target in a while.

Haha, that would be hilarious. Maybe his news conference tonight will be from Ecuador. I would piss

Howson claims he was censored by Ms. Assange because she denied him the chance to state his opinion:

"These people just want to come on air and give us their propaganda and they don't want any tough questions."

Logic fail - he's perfectly capable of saying whatever he likes....as evidenced by his stupid response.

Her refusing to be interviewed by him is just good taste on her part.

My thoughts exactly. It's called "Godwin's Rule of Nazi analogies".

OMG what an unbelievable idiot that guy was. It seems even the radio host was annoyed at him. Julian's mother was totally right to not do the interview.

John Michael Howson is the dude that shows like Good Morning Australia cross to for his opinion on the latest movies and what Justin Beiber is having for lunch.

He's nothing. He's less than nothing, he's just a talking head on TV who's time was up 20 years ago - a bit like David and Margaret and Richard Wilkins.
