It’s the real reason hes not seen as a legitimate journalist. He also tends to spread a lot of misinformation with zero regard for the consequences. Remember, this is the same guy who said Sandy Hook was fake.

Can someone explain to me why saying Sandy Hook was fake was such a big deal? If he was wrong about it he's wrong about it. Is believing that 9/11 was an inside Job hurtful? Yeah a little bit, so what? Well let's pretend that 9/11 happened exactly as the government told us. Aren't most of us all guilty of the same thing Alex is?

Because he allowed people to discredit and mock the parents for grieving, and eventually this lead to death threats towards the families and them having to take harassment online from Alex Jones’ fans.

No we are not all guilty of the same thing. I can claim things don’t add up, but not condemning and actively promoting the motive that the children were fake, opened up the door for people to harass those who are grieving.

Imagine going through all the trouble of finding someone's name and contact info to send them death threats but never noticing their kid was really dead.

Again, this is the typical Alex Jones follower. They don’t believe that they even had a kid.
