Had she made that point after she’d had the chance to watch the shows back, I might think differently. However, she showed no willingness or ability to think over her own actions, and to even consider that the perception of the audience could be based on her behaviour.
I’d also have to ask are the questions generated by the behaviour of a housemate, rather than the edit? The fact is, she still did what she did and said what she said, even if we only saw part of it.

I was mainly speaking in generalities here. I don't think it's fair to automatically discount the possibility that a HM might be able to infer the way they've been portrayed in the edit through the questions asked of them by the presenters and audience members on its sister show, the questions
not asked of them by the presenters and audience members (which, if what she's saying about arguments not being shown is true to any extent, she absolutely
would expect to be asked), and also the highlight reels presented to them. Also, yes of course she's still said what she said and done what she's done on the show*, but the broader scope of content can always change the context in which a person's remarks/actions are taken by the viewing public, or even mitigate the severity of them to an extent. I don't think that's even arguable tbh.
*though what she's done that's particularly worthy of such levels of revulsion is beyond me tbh. As far as I can tell, she's simply a bit of an overly dramatic and hypocritical headcase who seems to feel very heightened levels of paranoia and betrayal, and had the sad misfortune to make a fan favourite the subject of those feelings during her last few days. It's not like the silly cow spat at someone or threatened to send her mates after someone on the outside.
That, I could understand.
IMO, you know a HM is hated when AJ of all people is being praised for her interview skills.
