Alan Jones and contempt for women in the public sphere: vilification?
Get PDF[Extract] Feelings are still running high about Shock Jock Alan Jones' comment on Friday that women (ie the Prime Minister, Julia Gillard, Sydney Mayor Clover Moore, former Victorian Police Commissioner Christine Nixon) are "destroying the joint".
Tory Maguire, writing in The Punch, suggests that feminists should save their energy for "battles that might change something".

The breaches arose from material broadcast during the program Breakfast with Alan Jones between 5 and 9 December 2005
