No, you're right. This was his audience during the Bush years.

If you were an anti-Bush slacker in the Alternative scene talking about UFOs, JFK, and 9/11, chances are you listened to Alex Jones as well. Post Bush...the guy is an absolute fruitcake.

I'll admit that I've definitely followed him less over the years. I more or less just read infowars.com. It's cool that you mention this though. With the guys reputation nowadays it seems like there was a definite paradigm shift regarding his audience... Alex seems to be embracing it though, probably cause his traffic has been through the roof. It's odd though because I haven't really noticed any of his content or messaging changing, but when I casually discuss politics with people, the mention of Alex Jones gets a much different reaction than it did 10-15, hell even 5 years ago.

Alex realised that Glenn Beck made millions by stealing his schtick. so he ramped it up. Simple as that.

I always form my own opinions on any news report I read, be it alternative news or mainstream.

Just cause I think Alex is wrong sometimes doesn't mean that a lot of his coverage isn't great.

Not the case. I like to take in all sorts of different news whether it's liberal, conservative or alternative and then make up my own opinion. It's the only sensible way to stay educated.

ever heard of a dealbreaker? there are tons of reasons to know AJ is a piece of shit who is purposeful leading people like you on for money/fame... but sandy hook is like a shit test. if you can still support him by saying "he's not always right" after he thinks the whole thing is a hoax and a bunch of children didn't die and harassing the parents of the kids that died, well i guess you can forgive anything

Yeah, Alex Jones aint perfect... Far from it, but you'll still get a lot more real news from him than you would if you watched the state-run media like CNN...All they do is regurgitate releases directly from the government. That shit is no different than the news you'd see on T.V. in Russia.

And you're a bigot who uses words that you know are hurtful to a maligned community. Though I guess it doesn't matter to you unless it's a group of people who are currently trendy to defend.

you're an awful human and one of the most clueless, willfully blind people I have ever encountered. your ability to look past literally any transgression as long as the person in question is saying what you want to say is disgusting. you are weak, your mind is weak, and everything you do is fueled by a desperate attempt to convince yourself you aren't total trash

you have no fucking shame or sense of accountability to others whatsoever. your have zero right to criticize anyone over anything social justice related because you are a fucking ignorant offensive dickbag. people react to you correctly. It is YOU who is fucked.

Wow, calm down man. So we disagree politically, no need for such vitriol... I'm simply letting you know that large groups of people in or associated with the mentally disabled community are offended when people toss around words like "retard" as an insult. It's a word with a lot of baggage.
