It is one of Australia's most popular talk-back radio stations, especially in the Sydney area. Its announcers generally have a centre-right viewpoint. The station commenced broadcasting in 1926. The operator, Theosophical Broadcasting Station Pty Ltd, owned by interests associated with the local branch of Theosophical Society Adyar, was granted a radio broadcasting licence for the Sydney, area. The station's call sign, 2GB, was chosen to honour the Italian philosopher, Giordano Bruno, who was much admired by Theosophists. Although the ownership of the station has subsequently passed to strictly commercial interests, the call sign is retained. Image File history File links Unbalanced_scales. ...
