Gaunt hosted an early-morning show on current affairs on Talksport. On the 18th of November, 2008, it was revealed that Talksport terminated Gaunt’s contract in the wake of interviewing Redbridge’s Councillor Michael Stark on 7 November during which Gaunt accused the councillor Stark as a “Nazi”, and “an ignorant pig” live on air as part of a discussion over the right of smokers to foster children. Gaunt considered that the decision was unjust and could leave children in foster care, and the children would be more at risk. He had criticized Redbridge Council in similar terms in his Sun newspaper column the previous morning. Ofcom later discovered Talksport to be in “breach of broadcasting rules” in the wake of the incident. Jon Gaunt’s appeal fell flat. “The broadcast was undoubtedly highly offensive to Mr Stark and was well capable of offending the broadcast audience.”
