Alex Jones Fights Back: Sues Young Turks For Libel

In federal court in Austin today, Alex Jones filed suit against various liberal media members that libeled him over the summer, including The Young Turks, the national affairs editor of Mother Jones (Andrew Kimmel), and Democratic Congressional candidate Brianna Wu.

The suit alleges each of the defendants libeled Jones repeatedly over the summer, and failed to take any corrective action, even when the rest of the press did so.

As the suit states: “The defendants launched a campaign of lies and libels against their media competitor and ideological opponent, Alex Jones. Defendants virally spread one of the worst smears that can be spread about anyone: accusing someone of one of the most infamous federal felony crimes, even though defendant knew Jones was actually the victim of that crime.”

The suit details how cybercriminals targeted Infowars and tried to plant child porn on Infowars servers in order to be produced during discovery in other legal matters, how the FBI’s investigation cleared Infowars and identified Jones as the targeted victim of the cyberattack, and how the defendants then lied to the world about what happened by falsely accusing the victim, Alex Jones, of being the perpetrator.

“For too long, the media feels it can tell any lie or libel about Alex Jones that it wants. Jones, as a strong advocate of both free press and free speech, resisted calls for suing those who continued to lie and libel him. But enough is enough. It is time to fight back. It is time for the truth to come out. Jones only sued those who refused requests for retractions and corrections,” said Robert Barnes, the attorney for Alex Jones.

“Other defendants who similarly fail to retract or correct can look forward to future lawsuits. The media may think it’s Goliath, but it’s time it met David on the battlefield.”

He never had it but boy did lose it. Why would he even air that shit? Also the technology of even corporate email does not add up. That shit, even a picture of your new puppy gets scrubbed right out in a corporate atmosphere. He has child porn and this much is for certain.

Anyone remember the FBI releasing news in June that verifies his comment of being a victim and receiver of child porn? Jones said the FBI would release that news the Monday following the June 14th show.

He "doesn't like having sex with children" was quite a remarkable thing for him to say, especially when considering the topic he's discussing. A freudian slip, perhaps?

Also, how did he discover it? Nobody clicks on attachments if you are somewhat wise. I would never click on a pdf or any other link from an unknown source coming from email. And why is this only happening to him? I know of no one with Jones' "million dollar" problem.

Court hears Alex Jones' appeal in Sandy Hook case

The lawyers argued that conspiracy theorist Alex Jones should be penalized for an outburst he...

HARTFORD, Conn. (AP) — Conspiracy theorist Alex Jones should not have been penalized for an angry outburst on his Infowars web show against an attorney for relatives of some of the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting victims, Jones' lawyer told the Connecticut Supreme Court on Thursday.

Lawyer Norman Pattis told the justices Jones was exercising his free speech rights during the tirade in June against attorney Christopher Mattei, one of the lawyers representing the families in a defamation lawsuit against Jones, Infowars and others for calling the school shooting a hoax.

A lower court judge cited the outburst when she sanctioned Jones by barring him from filing a motion to dismiss the families' lawsuit, which has also included contentious proceedings over Jones' delays in turning over documents to the relatives. Jones appealed the penalty to the Supreme Court, which did not issue a ruling Thursday.

The sanction came after Jones, on Infowars, accused Mattei of planting child pornography that was found in email metadata files that Jones turned over to the Sandy Hook families' lawyers. Pattis said the pornography was in emails sent to Jones that were never opened.

"You're trying to set me up with child porn," Jones said on the show. "One million dollars, you little gang members. One million dollars to put your head on a pike."

Jones mentioned Mattei by name and pounded on a picture of Mattei while saying, "I'm gonna kill ... Anyway I'm done. Total war. You want it, you got it."

Joshua Koskoff, a lawyer for the Sandy Hook families suing Jones, said there were safety concerns after Jones' comments.

"What happens if that call for action, that call for a head on pike, goes out to 10 million-plus people that the person on the other side of that threat does not know anything about?" Koskoff asked the seven justices. "There's clearly defamation. There's elements of incitement. And there's definitely true threat."

Pattis said Jones, who was not at Thursday's arguments, had good reason to be upset about the child porn, but his comments were not true threats and were protected by First Amendment free speech rights.

"From our perspective, Mr. Jones had every right to offer a million dollar reward to find out who did this," Pattis said. "He had every right to express rage."

Outside the Supreme Court with parents of some of the school shooting victims standing behind him, Mattei said Jones' comments prompted him and the law firm to take precautions.

"I was a federal prosecutor for eight years so I've dealt with threats before," Mattei said. "Whatever we've had to deal with ... pales in comparison to the abuse that he unleashed to the people standing behind me over a period of years."

Relatives who attended the hearing declined to comment.

The families of eight victims of the 2012 shooting in Newtown, Connecticut, and an FBI agent who responded to the massacre are suing Jones, Infowars and others for promoting a theory that the shooting was a hoax. A 20-year-old gunman killed 20 first-graders, six educators and himself at the school, after having killed his mother at their Newtown home.

The families said they have been subjected to harassment and death threats from Jones' followers because of the hoax conspiracy.

Jones has since said he believes the shooting occurred.

Not sure I follow your logic / what you are trying to say 82_28.

The article Iam just posted after your questions/comments - but also mentioned in other news about this - states:

The sanction came after Jones, on Infowars, accused Mattei of planting child pornography that was found in email metadata files that Jones turned over to the Sandy Hook families' lawyers. Pattis said the pornography was in emails sent to Jones that were never opened.


It seems entirely plausible to me that in handing over what was likely terabytes (or at least gigabytes) worth of emails spanning years there would be a LOT of potentially damning evidence that could be found within. I assume with so much web traffic and constant emails coming in they do likely have some automated way of weeding out suspicious emails with potentially nefarious attachments. So how does sending all of that (unopened but caught in your system) qualify as that person having those materials?

How many emails is a terabyte?
“Considering that one terabyte is generally estimated to contain 75 million pages, a one-terabyte case could amount to 18,750,000 documents, assuming an average of four pages per document. Mar 5, 2012

All I can say is my point was if it was a legit company he runs, the intranet software would have scrubbed it -- stronger security with a known target (himself). With all this email servers nonsense still going on, he needed to run a tighter ship. If that is impossible then the guy got child porn or at least his employees did and they sent it around intra-organization.

I have no experience with which to compare / judge the (mis)management of an (corporate / "small" businesses') IT department's email servers having worked for a State agency the past 2 decades and briefly working for a computer game company for a year back in the early 1990s at the birth of the MMORPG with Ultima Online.

Since we don't really know any of the details / facts surrounding this discovery we're just imagining what actually happened, as in "the guy got child porn or at least his employees did and they sent it around intra-organization."

Anywho - I got no dog in this hunt.

Alex Jones is trying to out the identity of a potential Roger Stone trial juror with the help of Stone’s assistant
WRITTEN BY TIMOTHY JOHNSON

Alex Jones attempts to out juror

Far-right conspiracy theorist Alex Jones is attempting to disclose the identity of a potential juror for the trial of Trump confidant Roger Stone, who has worked at Jones’ Infowars outlet. Jones attempted to elicit the juror information from Jacob Engels, who often collaborates with Stone.

Stone appeared in federal court in Washington, D.C., today for jury selection as his trial begins over felony charges that allege he lied to Congress about his dealings with WikiLeaks concerning emails hacked by Russia in the 2016 presidential election; obstructed an official proceeding; and intimidated a witness, radio host Randy Credico.

The first step of the trial is interviewing potential jurors, and little progress was made during the first session as Stone began to suffer from food poisoning; after a pool is picked, both prosecution and defense will be able to strike individuals for any reason.

The first potential juror to be interviewed reportedly worked as the communications director at the Office of Budget and Management (OMB) during the Obama administration. During the November 5 broadcast of The Alex Jones Show, Jones and Engels both incorrectly said that the former Obama administration official had been chosen for the jury. Rather, Judge Amy Berman Jackson had approved the person as a potential juror. Additionally, they seemed to incorrectly indicate which official is the potential juror.

Jones began reading a list of former Obama officials, asking Engels to give a sign if he said the correct name; apparently he got his answer when he named former White House communications director Jennifer Palmieri. But the OMB communications director position is different than the White House communications director position, meaning that if the report about the potential juror working for OMB is correct, the potential juror is not Palmieri.

Jones then said, “We’ve got to have Obama’s former communications director hang Roger. Hell, if they give him the death penalty, maybe she can hang him and kick the lever and he’ll break his neck and she can piss all over his dead body.” Engels said of the potential juror: “All I can say is from what happened in the courtroom today, there was a well-known Obama communications asset that was allowed to be a juror.” He added that “her husband is a member of the deep state intelligence community.” Jones replied, “Hey, look up Palmieri’s husband.”
Jones also attacked Berman Jackson, saying she “should recuse herself. She’s known as a fraud.” Berman Jackson has been repeatedly attacked on Infowars, including by Jones, who compared her to Hitler.

Jones is now showing a willingness to sic his audience on jurors for Stone’s trial. Jones’ inflammatory rhetoric can have real life consequences. For example, an Infowars fan who consumed and shared false Infowars conspiracy theories about a Washington, D.C., pizza restaurant later decided to “self-investigate” the conspiracy theories and traveled to the restaurant and fired a gun inside.

Engels, who was recently described by The Daily Beast as Stone’s “mini-me,” was at the trial and was part of a small demonstration held outside. Engels is a member of the violent extremist gang Proud Boys and has often worked with Stone, including joining him on Infowars broadcasts. Stone used to host Infowars show War Room. He largely stopped making appearances when Judge Berman Jackson issued a strict gag order after Stone posted an image on his Instagram account of her “next to an apparent rifle scope's crosshair.”

Stone made his first appearance in months on The Alex Jones Show on October 25, discussing topics unrelated to his trial and making flattering comments about Donald Trump Jr. and Fox News hosts Tucker Carlson, Sean Hannity, and Laura Ingraham. The appearance seemingly ended a small falling out between Stone and Jones over Stone supposedly sharing “exclusive” information with outlets other than Infowars. Prior to the issuance of the gag order, Stone described the Infowars platform as “vital” to his criminal defense strategy.

I really feel sorry for the guy. I imagine he'll wind up broke, homeless and babbling on, arguing with his imaginary persecutors. At least this time he didn't injure anyone when driving impaired.

I watched his video. He never learns to keep his mouth shut. He complained his photo was taken three hours after he consumed a bottle of saki with his wife and afterwards was arrested while driving to his home. How much of the saki she had to drink is not mentioned. It's difficult to understand his complaint. He certainly was intoxicated if he had more than four ounces of saki less than 2 hours earlier. Besides, Texas motor vehicle laws permits arrests for driving while impaired by alcohol or drugs.
