A court hears testimony that radio host Ray Hadley struck a secret deal to take Alan Jones’ prized 2GB breakfast time slot, as part of Alan Jones’ ongoing “blockbuster” legal proceedings.
The outlets reporting on the case say the claim is presented in court as part of arguments surrounding the future control of the high-profile 2GB schedule. Both sources describe the alleged arrangement as a “secret deal” tied specifically to Hadley taking over Jones’ morning programming role.
While the reports align on the central allegation and the broad context of Jones’ trial, they provide limited additional detail beyond identifying the parties and the time-slot issue. Neither source offers separate, conflicting claims about what the deal involved, when it was reached, or how it is said to have been carried out. The reporting therefore centers on the court statement itself rather than corroborating facts or outcomes.
