2GB issued a statement confirming the radio station had terminated Smith's services.
"The termination follows the Sky News Christmas party at the weekend, where Chris has conceded his behaviour was unacceptable, 'apologising profusely' for his 'drunken treatment' of women," the statement read.Nine's managing director of radio Tom Malone said: "Chris' behaviour represents a serious breach of his contract and is not aligned with the values of 2GB.
The statement said Nine has "provided support to Chris in recent days and will continue to offer that support as required".On Monday, Smith apologised for his behaviour and said he was "in a facility receiving professional help, to deal conclusively with my abuse of alcohol". "I am beyond gutted and devastated to know I have upset my colleagues after our Christmas party," he said."That's not the man I am at work ever, as they will all attest.Nine, the publisher of this website, also owns 2GB.
