CONTROVERSIAL broadcaster Alan Jones says he believes students were responsible for the Boston Marathon bombings, and Australia should rethink its intake of foreign students after yesterday's carnage.
''I wouldn't be surprised if this was a conspiracy among students, left wing radical students in Boston,'' Jones, from Sydney's 2GB radio, told the Seven Network's Sunrise program.
Jones said Boston was a well known university town with institutions such as Harvard and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).

It's always wise to hear the messenger out before you shoot him
In his case this messenger is using tragedy for personal gains and should be shot.

You seem to not realise that he works in the media...his job is to give us (the public) facts

He didnt say they were muslims, you did.
He also said they were 'left wing radicals'.....wrong.
He listed as many different types of people he can 'work up into an anger his listeners with' and crossed his hoofs that one stereotype would fit.
He is not Psychic, a sorry excuse for a human being, maybe,but not psycic.
I enjoy the trolling, but much like life, you failed.

The AFL grand final prediction in the style of Alan Jones
- winning team will be wearing socks....striped maybe
-they will be kicking goals, more than the other team
- the teams will all be male
-a Melbourne club will be involved
-there will be a halftime performence that will not be good
-There will be an Aboriginal player in the team
-kids will be handing out the winning teams medals
-both teams will run through a banner
Now I sit back and if atleast two of these are true I am infact correct and we will ignore everything else I predicted.
This is known as the John Edwards con job.

So do we have any official confirmation of which universities they were or had once been at?
High schools don't count - you can't label someone a student simply because they went through high school.

I agree, also with LL, I think Jones is a grub, and Bolt a nut. However, what I find disturbing is that both of the "shockers" broadcasts are so popular (ratings).
I agree BUT Mr Jones is laughing all the way to the bank and does not give a "mickey mouse" what you or I think. It's called ratings and if it makes people listen and there is a reaction he has been successful, personally I don't listen.

Ha ha ha @ Mike Carlton:
Surely the FBI could have saved itself a lot of time and trouble if it had rung our very own Alan Jones, the visionary broadcaster, to find out who was behind the Boston bombing.
Possessing powers beyond those of mortal men, Alan knew instinctively who had done it: left-wing students. The carnage had barely been cleared away before he was on breakfast television to reveal the ghastly truth behind the attacks. It springs from those sinks of terrorist conspiracy, Harvard University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology which, believe it or not, are quite close to Boston.
