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.
Musk will probably end up buying it, buying MSNBC and renaming that to InfowarsX
And, like twitter, promptly destroy the site.
Musk is shit at social media and I can’t see him and Jones getting along long enough to make this purchase profitable.
This made me nauseous only because I can actually see it happening.
