Ah, for the days when Alex Jones seemed like a mostly harmless kook who led Jon Ronson on wacky, paranoid adventures sneaking into Bohemian Grove.

I liked that he was bundled into a van and then never heard from again.

As the lawsuit against Alex Jones. . . has led to a lawsuit,
That is the lawsuit.
. . .and that has led to discovery and depositions
Those are part of the lawsuit.

I’ve just gotten into the transcript and I have to say that it’s a hoot. Jones is an idiot!
(Please. No comments like “of course” or “Where have you been?” I have heard of Alex Jones (I don’t live in a bubble), but I’ve never watched or heard anything from Infowwars since I’ve had better things to do. I stay away from conspiracy whats-its.)

The sad thing about Mr Jones is that he’s too stupid to realize how stupid he is.

It’s not even that I think BB commenters are so bad, but I can’t take the chance that any of you’d ignore me first. clickclickclickclickclickclickclickclickclickclickclickclick

Not at all. Jones has been cultivating his act for decades. He knows full well that his audience demands a constant ratcheting up of over-the-top crazy in order to keep their attention. This American Life just had an episode about him where they go back to his high school days and interview classmates who basically say he was as full of shit back then as he is now.
Multiple people describe incidents where he got the shit beat out of him for being a raging asshole. Of course Jones spins this the other way and says he’s the one who took on the whole football team by himself. It took Alex almost murdering a classmate for his father to step in and cover his ass and forcing his family to move away his senior year.
It’s worth a listen.

Cory, i wish you’d use links other than huffpost which redirect to some data scraper thing for the purposes of advertising that gets blocked on my end. Anyone know of a way around this or should i just read about it elsewhere?
