Way to avoid answering the question.

It's what they do when they know they're wrong.
Their tactics are to ignore it and go say something stupid on some other post.

AUSTIN, Texas — Conspiracy theorist Alex Jones testified Wednesday that he now understands it was irresponsible of him to declare the Sandy Hook Elementary School massacre a hoax and that he now believes it was "100% real."
Where did he admit to lying? Certainly not in your quote.

It's just a huge money grab by greedy people, both the relatives and the lawyers, aided by a justice system that is only too happy to destroy a conspiracy theorist with conservative leanings. What about the people that actually harrassed and threatened the families? Why wouldn't punishing them be enough along with a reasonable payout by Jones depending on the degree to which he encouraged them and knowingly spread misinformation. Paying them each tens of millions of dollars is not justice. That said, i think Alex Jones is a swindler who tapped into people's distrust of government with half-baked grandiose theories. I just think his money would better be transferred to some organization that actually helps victims of crimes rather than a bunch of rapacious moneygrubbers.

I'm totally in favor, so long as Donald can put together a case and get a jury to agree to it
