A federal bankruptcy judge in Texas has ordered a hearing into how the satirical news publication The Onion won the bidding for conspiracy theorist Alex Jones’ Infowars, after Jones and his lawyers raised questions about how a bankruptcy auction was conducted.
Here is a press statement from The Onion. It says that the Onion plans to completely transition InfoWars into a new website by January 2025. I think this is a screenshot of an email maybe. Maxwell Tani is a journalist from semafor.com, so it’s definitely a legit screenshot.
