In the breakfast battle, Jones was the winner with his show on 2Gb jumping by 1.4 points to a share of 18.5%. Last week, 2Gb was censured by the Australian Communications and Media Authority over Jones’ climate change claims. The watchdog also labelled Jones’ comments about Pm Julia Gillard as disrespectful.
Among the commercial FM breakfast shows, The Kyle & Jackie O Show on 2Day FM has consolidated its lead, with a rise of 0.7 points to a share of 10.5%.
