To put this in perspective:

Jones' comment was insensitive given the recent death of her father. However, the faux outrage from labor desperately trying to tie this to Abbott smacks of desperation.

Some facts:

Abbott and the liberals went out of their way to ensure that JG had a week to grieve without distractions. This has been ignored.

AJ is not a liberal party office bearer, and the student club he was addressing, while bearing the name "young liberals" is not affiliated to the liberal party in any way.

There is a plethora of inappropriate comments made about liberal leaders, by labor and union officials, for which Labor has never once offered an apology.

AJ is a "shock jock" who thrives on outrageous comments. This is unlikely to dent his standing as the single most popular commentator. The advertisers that are pulling away, will most probably return, or others will take their place.

Finally shame is not a medical condition. Mr Gillard was JG's greatest fan and proud of all the lies she told.

Jones has hidden behind a shield of PC all his life.
He has as said up the thread much to hide, yet if I, and I have form behind a Mike, let loose on his habits, he would cry foul.
Yet this woman like, hater of females does this every day, on air and gets rich doing it.
I HIGHLIGHT those supporting his right to be the grub he is.
And HIGHLIGHT TOO if his words came about a Liberal leader, they would scream the loudest!
Standards of decentsy are for us all.

Alan jones is a radio commentator and like all commentators says or writes things occasionally desiegned to bring attention to themselves.

What jones said was inappropriate but no worse than comments of other commentators, left and right. Speaking of which, he was right about the PM being a liar, that is for sure.

People have short memories. Do not Kyle and jackie O anyways say stuff that is wrong. Some time back there was a ruckus about their questioning a young girl about her sex life or something. What about Hinch. Catherine Devenly recently commented about a 14yo girl "hope she gets laid" And about someone else "hope he gets arse cancer"

So really, people are making a mountain out of a mole hill.

Slow news day. I do not listen to radio, Time better spent.

What seems to have been overlooked is that the Prime Minister has
refused to take a call from Alan Jones, but at the same time is happy
to use the situation to attack not just Alan Jones but Tony Abbott as well !

Really I will say it, The PM is a hypocrite !
To use her father like that is-- I am lost for words !

You can not make excuses for this slime bag. The liberals have stated their support for Jones.
Every corner of the world has heard about this. Hopefully this will be the end of Jones and his defamatory mouth.
The carbon tax was supposed to have bankrupted Australia.
What Jones says Abbott repeats.
