The equvalent down here (three are several, alas) is Alan Jones.

A few years back he was taken to court for some particularly offensive piece of BS.
His lawyers successfully argued that what he does is entertainment, not news and so he can -roughly - make shit up. Which he does.

Sadly, he is not required to remind listeners of this, and a significant number of people believe him.
