CNN/Business has a report on the latest Alex Jones hijinks. Jones is a source that has been more than generous in the past – for hijinks:
Sandy Hook families suing InfoWars founder Alex Jones have won a case against him after a judge ruled against Jones who has failed to comply with the discovery process.
Jones and entities owned by him were found liable by default Monday in a defamation case against them.
Connecticut Superior Court Judge Barbara Bellis cited the defendants’ “willful noncompliance” with the discovery process as her core reasoning behind the ruling. She specifically noted that they had not turned over financial and analytics data requested multiple times by the Sandy Hook family plaintiffs.”
All the defendants have failed to fully and fairly comply with their discovery obligations,” Bellis said at the virtual hearing.
It’s not difficult to imagine a correlation between analytics of content access and financial returns, is it? By connecting that information, Jones’ wretched rants concerning Sandy Hook will give the Court insight into just how much money is generated by such fallacious sensationalism.
And that all feeds into the basic tale of an adoration of wealth & prestige. It’s lead Jones to believe he should defy all lawful societal orders because, well, money.
Which really isn’t that far from former President Trump, former advisor Steve Bannon, former Chief of Staff Mark Meadows – The hell with the lawful, we refuse to give up what’s not ours!
A bunch of very dangerous five year olds. But that’s the culture of the right, and it’s dangerous.
