Summary
A federal judge has delayed approving the sale of Alex Jones’ media company, Infowars, to The Onion, amid disputes over the auction process.
The Onion won with a $1.75 million bid supported by Sandy Hook families, who agreed to forego their share of sale proceeds for future revenue from a revamped Infowars, enabling other creditors to collect more.
However, a competing bidder backed by Jones, First United American Companies, contested the sale, claiming its $3.5 million bid was unfairly rejected.
The judge plans an evidentiary hearing to ensure transparency.
The trustee is on very solid ground. He had practically unilateral authority given to him. Guess we’ll see.
I have lost all faith in the American legal system. I expect Infowars to be broadcasting Jones’s filth well into the 2040s
I will not be surprised if this ends with Jones winning his counter suit against the families and bankrupting them. I have lost all faith in the USA.
Don’t worry; Alex Jones isn’t orange enough for the legal system to ignore.
