Christine Assange was due to speak to 3AW's Sunday morning show about her son, the founder of whistleblower website WikiLeaks, and his successful appeal for asylum in Ecuador.

But she changed her mind after hearing how co-host John-Michael Howson had treated a previous guest.

"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.

I...uh...what?

1. That radio host is one major screwed-up person.

Conservative Roman Catholic, gay, and hates Muslims.

"Howson is an occasional panellist for radio station 3AW. During his appearances on 3AW, Howson has adopted vehemently anti-Muslim views, indicating that he would prefer not to talk to Muslims and referring to Muslims as "skilled propagandists".[6] The Australian Broadcasting Corporation's Media Watch program did a segment outlining Howson's behaviour and views in May 2010." -Wikipedia
