BREAKING: Alan Jones rushed to hospital after heart attack

Legendary broadcaster airlifted to St Vincent’s Hospital

Jones, 79, suffered a heart attack at his home in Sydney’s east on Tuesday night.

He was rushed to St Vincent’s Hospital by ambulance, where he is currently undergoing surgery. His condition is described as serious but stable.

Fordham, who has been filling in for Jones on 2GB, said the veteran broadcaster was “fighting fit” before the heart attack.

“He’s been in a delirious state of half-sleep for the past two. We just hope he can pull through this,” Fordham said.

Jones is one of Australia’s most popular and controversial broadcasters. He has been a fixture on radio and television for more than 50 years.

His career has been marked by both success and controversy. He has been praised for his outspoken views and his ability to connect with ordinary Australians.

However, he has also been criticized for his inflammatory rhetoric and his personal attacks on his critics.

Jones’s illness comes at a time when he is facing legal action from several high-profile figures, including former Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull.

Turnbull is suing Jones for defamation over comments made on his radio show. The case is due to go to trial later this year.

Jones’s illness is a reminder of the fragility of life. It is also a reminder of the importance of cherishing the time we have with our loved ones.
