Not entirely true, the thickness of a transmission antenna can increase the resonant bandwidth so a thicker dipole might have more bandwidth than a thinner dipole but this bandwidth is in relation to forward and reflected power (otherwise known as SWR measurements).

This is though totally different to bandwidth of a carrier medium like co-axial cable of which he is getting mixed up with.
