Jones’s off-stage rant at reporter (02:57)

Broadcaster Alan Jones verbally attacked Sydney Morning Herald journalist Jacqueline Maley on and off the stage for asking a question at a rally in Canberra. 23/08/11

First Jones calls Jaqueline Maley a left winger, then he asks, “what side are you on?”

What do you mean ‘what side are you on’, Alan?

You people are supposed to report the media stories, not chooses sides. you genuinely can’t understand that, can you – you’re a joke Jones.
