On Tuesday,a member of Jones'team called aMedia Watchproducer to claim the radio presenter had been taken out of context. 2GB sources admitted the call was an"angry approach"because a six-minute editorial had been cut down to highlight 15 seconds of Jones'most offensive comments and,they believed,it did not accurately represent what he had initially said.
Media Watchsources said they stood by the segment and merely trimmed the audio into bite-sized grabs given their program is only 15 minutes in length.
