    There's a song in the air, but the fair senorita
    Doesn't seem to care for the song in the air.

    So I'll sing to the mule, if you're sure she won't think
    That I am just a fool serenading a mule!

  2. In all those years, how many prime ministers fawned at this creep's feet?

    This was the same Alan Jones, coach of the Australian Wallabies rugby team who was detained following an incident in a British public toilet, an incident that evaporated away?

    Unrelated: does anyone know when name suppression for NZ's "Former Political Figure" is due to be decided?

  6. So, this happened this morning.

    #AlanJones, for those not in the know, was one of #Australia’s most powerful #media figures, a key ally of #conservative, #RightWing politicians, and in his prime held tremendous sway over public opinion. He was also a #RugbyUnion coach, working at a series of private boys’ schools and for the national team, the #Wallabies.

    Veteran broadcaster Alan Jones arrested in Sydney amid alleged indecent assault and sexual touching offences investigation
    abc.net.au/news/2024-11-18/ala

    There's been a lot of allegations against RWNJ radio shock-jock, Alan Jones over the years. Some of them have been made by former workmates. Earlier this morning, when I heard that Alan Jones had been arrested, I thought it was going to be because of that angle. But, as details of this arrest come to light, they add another horrifying dimension: he's being investigated by the Child Abuse Squad.

    For decades, Alan Jones has been untouchable because he has friends who are rich, powerful, politically connected (all the way up to a former Prime Minister), or high-up in the NSW Police force -- but I'm starting to wonder if his defence by his old boys network is crumbling because they're old, retired, or deceased.

    It's time Alan Jones faces legal consequences. This is long overdue, and his victims deserve justice.

    Oh, frabjous day! Kahloo! Kahlay! Jones is a creep of the highest order, a slathering supporter of Pell and other religious child abusers, and all-around arsehole.

    EDIT: 24 charges (so far), including aggravated indecent assault and sexual assault. He's toast.

    How alleged paedophile Alan Jones has been protected by the old media for decades
    kangaroocourtofaustralia.com/2

    This article by Shane Dowling in Kangaroo Court of Australia presents an extremely lengthy series of reported events by Alan Jones and and allegations against him. It also shows that many people in the media have known about Jones and covered-up his problematic behaviour.
    For example: in the 1970s, Alan Jones was grooming schoolboys and sending them love-letters when he was a teacher at The Kings School. This was revealed in the book, "Jonestown" by Chris Masters. He was an investigative journalist for the ABC but the ABC refused to publish due to legal threats, so Chris Masters had to go to a different publisher.

    ‘He’d go the grope’: Alan Jones accused of indecently assaulting young men
    smh.com.au/national/he-d-go-th

    This article by Kate McClymont is not easy to read. It's an extraordinary account of the allegations against Alan Jones of sexual assaults against multiple people over many years.

    Brave of people to come forward with this information, and some gusty reporting by Kate McClymont. It's fair to say the newspaper would have gotten everything checked-over by lawyers before publishing this article and deciding they're up for a tough legal fight.

  19. Alan Jones's lawyers taking 'first steps' towards defamation proceedings over indecent assault allegations
    abc.net.au/news/2023-12-07/ala

    Radio shock-jock, Alan jones is lawyering-up to sling a defo charge at Nine Newspapers and investigative journalist, Kate McClymont. They've revealed credible allegations that Alan Jones indecently assaulted four young men by groping or kissing them while he was in the nadir (RWNJs would say peak) of his radio career. It's another case of high-profile men acting badly, and reacting by using the courts as a weapon by countering with defamation claims.

    You may recall that Alan Jones is a foul-mouthed misogynist and all-round awful person.

    Jones has been called-out by regulators for repeatedly performing cash-for-comment: on-air fraud where he made favourable comments about companies such as Telstra, Qantas, Optus, Foxtel, Mirvac, and major banks without telling listeners he was being paid by them.

    In 2005, Alan Jones encouraged violence and vilified Middle-Eastern people, saying "Come to Cronulla this weekend to take revenge". He helped to precipitate the Cronulla Riots.

    Alan Jones' sexism and politically-motivated slurs included saying Prime Minister Julia Gillard was a liar, and that her father had "died of shame". He encouraged misogynistic violence against the Lord Mayor of Sydney, Clover Moore, by saying "Put her in the same chaff bag as Julia Gillard and throw them both out to sea". Of course, he said favourable things about Tony Abbott in the same breath.

    More recently, Alan Jones has been a COVID-minimiser, and a long-time climate-change denier.

    Lovely chap. I get the impression his colleagues at the radio station and in political circles knew about it and closed-ranks to protect Alan Jones.
