The Onion’s ‘Infowars’ Parody Is Here. Alex Jones Is Going to Hate It
The Onion has launched a satirical livestream parodying Alex Jones' Infowars, featuring a fictionalized version of the commentator. The project follows The Onion's legal efforts to acquire Infowars' assets after Jones was held liable for defamation regarding the Sandy Hook shooting.
Why it matters
The project represents a unique intersection of bankruptcy law, media satire, and the ongoing accountability for misinformation in the digital age.
The satirical outlet’s weekly Infowars parody livestream airs on Thursdays at 8 pm ET, starting tonight.
The framing highlights the legal victory of Sandy Hook families and portrays the subject of the parody in a negative light.
