NPPF Canto two: Pat Pink?

[jbor]

            Thunder above the Jungle. 'No, not that!'
            Pat Pink, our guest, (antiatomic chat).
            Eleven struck. ... (461-3)
                   
This is a little bit obscure. I get the impression that a war movie has come
on to the television, Shade has said "No, not that!", Sybil has switched
over to a talk show (Johnny Carson?) on another channel, and the "guest" on
the show is Pat Pink, and the subject they're discussing is atomic weapons
("antiatomic chat").

Who is or was Pat Pink?
