Shirtless Alex Jones Fights The Onion’s Infowars Takeover
TL;DR Summary
Infowars founder Alex Jones livestreams shirtless to denounce The Onion’s licensing deal to acquire Infowars’ brand and IP as part of the brand’s bankruptcy process. The Onion would pay $81,000 a month for six months (with an option to extend) and Tim Heidecker is attached as Infowars’ creative director; the deal still requires court approval, after Jones’ defamation lawsuits helped drive Infowars into bankruptcy.
