In the case you missed this news. In a few days we will see a mathematically generated "interference image" that corresponds with the "black hole". I don't think this will include the radio-jet.
Maybe this radio-signal is already the massive object in the Center, just not black.

As I understand it, most of the material ejected from a black hole travels along it's axis of rotation.
Or is this redshifted light emitted from objects that are approaching the event horizon? Redshifted into the radio spectrum, that is.
Also, radio waves are very low energy.
