Ah, fail to make an argument so seek to appeal to other's emotions.

Listen, genius, no one is making Jones a martyr. Most people are stating the obvious.

1) $1 billion is a ridiculous amount and not serious.
2) Alex Jones' attack on the left is why the "billions" is being sought, and why you leftists are refusing to see the obvious.

Interesting you believe this is justification


Do you think defamation laws should be repealed? If so, make the argument.

If not, explain why Alex Jones should be insulated from them?

I’d say the biggest piece of shite is the guy lying about little kids getting murdered.


my bad, lawyers would never lie.

there is a difference between a guy that pushes conspiracies and actual lawyers. Alex jones is a conspiracy theorist, like no shite you arent supposed to take him seriously.

don’t think this has anything to do with anything he said against the left. It was simply a mean spirited campaign that largely focused on calling the victims of a tragic event fakes to the extent they were harassed, threatened, and assaulted.


It wasn't even a campaign. It was a few comments that they've never let die even after he apologized etc...

This is "lawfare" being waged to see how far they can take it against someone that isn't catching any sympathy.

The dude's a loon but this isn't about him or sandy hook. It's about what they can do to you in the future.

Please, contextualize this, in detail.

A lot of you seem either intentionally or unintentionally ignorant to how civil lawsuits work, who has standing to bring them, who presides over them, and who determines damages.

Anyway, this website has become a fricking trash can. That people would make Alex fricking Jones a martyr and the majority of this site would agree with that after the shite he has pulled is pathetic.

What a cesspool this place has become.


or this judgement is ridiculous, and you have numerous people pointing out other instances of lying that would never receive this type of judgment.

No one said he should be insulated. Straw man. We don't think these parents deserve all this money for his comments.

I haven't followed this story at all. What did Jones do to merit such a penalty?

You do know that cnn claims they report opinions to avoid defamation lawsuits right?

So i think you have your news stations mixed up.

In addition to being guilty, he didn’t do himself a lot of favors procedurally in the courts.

It’s the lefts playbook. They are unable to think logically/rationally and can only make decisions based upon emotions. Why do you think this country is so screwed up?

Are you insinuating that Jones represents conservatives? I dispute that.


No, not at all. Jones represents Jones and a bunch of off the wall crack pot theories that occasionally is sprinkled in with truth. I'm insinuating, that it is Jones' attack of the left as to why there is cheerleading from the left.

quote:

We will see what the jury says their reasoning was most likely. I’m guessing it was related to his revenue during the time of his tortious conduct.
It could get reduced on appeal.


I don't see it sticking. It's like Dominion suing what's her name over slander for like $900 million. It's a scare tactic to send a message. Not a serious amount.

quote:

I don’t think this has anything to do with anything he said against the left.


Are we going to still pretend that media is "unbiased" and that if Jones never said anything about the left, and Obama, that there would still be an eleventy-billion dollar settlement amount? No one believes that.

You can tell, because a lot of the leftist O-T lawyers that are saying "that's what he gets" are not saying the same when other slanderous lawsuits are talked about. I don't see C on Z saying "you go girl" for Nick Sandman.

Is Jones a piece of shite for saying what he said about Sandy Hook? Absolutely. Is there some sort of monetary punishment he should pay for saying those things, probably. Is it "billions"? No.
