Summary
Alex Jones has sued Sandy Hook families and The Onion’s parent company, Global Tetrahedron, alleging a conspiracy in their joint $1.75M bid to acquire Infowars during a bankruptcy auction.
Jones claims their bid unfairly appeared more valuable due to the families waiving portions of their payout, benefiting other defamation victims.
The bankruptcy trustee dismissed the allegations as baseless. Sandy Hook families vowed to hold Jones accountable, while the auction process faces judicial scrutiny over transparency.
A hearing is scheduled for November 25. Jones owes over $1B in defamation damages.
Wait, it’s been since high school that I read that book admittedly, but wasn’t it kinda reversed, where concepts of demons are in universe subconsciously inspired by the appearance of the aliens, rather than the aliens themselves being demons?
Yes, but Alex Jones has the media literacy of a bowl of mashed potatoes. He picks and chooses what he likes from movies and tv shows to shape his conspiracy theories and ignores the rest. It’s a point that’s discussed often on the Knowledge Fight podcast. (Which is devoted to debunking infowars) He’s constantly missing the point of the media he claims to love.
