The Onion to rebrand InfoWars under court-supervised licensing deal
TL;DR
The Onion will license Infowars.com and the Infowars brand from a court-appointed administrator for $81,000 per month for six months (with a possible six-month extension), pending judicial approval; the relaunch, led creatively by Tim Heidecker, comes as Alex Jones’ InfoWars remains in bankruptcy after Sandy Hook–related lawsuits.
