This kind of BS is the reason why I stopped being brainwashed by him 4 odd years ago.

And Trump has still attended more intelligence briefings at this point in the transition than Bill Clinton had.

I don't know why he does this. There are times when sounds reasonable such as pinpointing the trendy liberal hipsters as merely following trends rather than being truly engaged in issues, that their progressivism is mostly commercialized. I found that kinda lucid. But then he'll go off a tangent thinking everything is connected to this grand scheme. He can't just analyze a seperate incident as its own isolated thing. That's where he just falters and what keeps his show from being a decent source of info. He would be a pretty good outsider right wing radio host. Instead he wants to be this conspiracy guy.

But most ppl I assume ignore that when watching his show. They're prolly doing like me and taking his news as informative but fact checking it through other reputable sources.

The mainstream media is scared of the new alternate media. Alex jones is over the top on many topics (to entertain his audience) but his core message has been accurate. He could be nominated for time person of the year along with assange and trump.

Just so I understand, do most people who voted for Trump believe that the Sandy Hook shootings didn't happen?

Yes I suspect the conspiracy theories are for entertainment or are simply Alex's interests because the rest of his crew aren't that into them. The core of the reporting is enough to keep me tuned and I usually just fact check it. Paul Joseph Watson is one of his better correspondents

After hearing all about Breitbart on CNN all the time I listened to them while traveling home last night.
It was decent information that had a right wing slant to it. It is nice to have an alternative to news without a heavy liberal slant other than fox news.

Sad to see you think your OP is true.

Since the whole phony baloney " fake news" war that the panicky media launched. When did the democratic become the party of trolls? Why can't the media let people discuss and sift through information on their own? Since when is the truth so radioactive?
