Will The Onion Finally Get Its Wish to Take Over Infowars

from GREY Journal Daily News Podcast

A legal battle arises over the sale of Infowars in Texas, as The Onion seeks to acquire the platform amid allegations from Alex Jones. A judge will review the bankruptcy auction process, focusing on claims of collusion and fraud made by Jones. U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Christopher Lopez will evaluate the auction where The Onion bid $1.75 million for Infowars' assets, while a company linked to Jones offered $3.5 million. The sale follows Jones' personal bankruptcy, initiated after a $1.5 billion defamation ruling related to the Sandy Hook incident. The Onion's bid includes an agreement from Sandy Hook families to increase creditor compensation. Jones and the competing bidder allege collusion in the auction process, while all parties involved deny these claims. The auction includes the Infowars studio assets and associated social media accounts. Jones has made plans in case The Onion successfully acquires the platform and acknowledges the Sandy Hook shooting despite appealing the judgments against him.Learn more on this news visit us at: https://greyjournal.net/ Hosted on Acast.
