Chuck Todd told you this, so you believe it.
Jones has been at the center of many controversies. In 2009, Jones claimed that a convicted con man’s scheme to take over a long-vacant, would-be for-profit prison in Hardin, Montana was part of a FEMA plot to detain US citizens in concentration camps.[131] Jones was in a “media crossfire” in 2011, which included criticism by Rush Limbaugh, when the news spread that Jared Lee Loughner, the perpetrator of the 2011 Tucson shooting, had been “a fan” of the 9/11 conspiracy film Loose Change of which Jones had been an executive producer.[23]
In January 2013, Jones was invited to speak on Piers Morgan’s CNN show after promoting an online petition to deport Morgan because of his support of gun control.[132] The Christian Science Monitor described the interview as “a one-person shoutfest” by Jones.[132] According to The Huffington Post, Morgan and others such as Glenn Beck “agreed that Jones was a terrible spokesman for gun rights”.[133]
On June 9, 2013, Jones appeared as a guest on the BBC’s Sunday Politics, discussing conspiracy theories about the Bilderberg Group, with presenter Andrew Neil and journalist David Aaronovitch. Aaronovitch implied that, since Jones had not been killed for exposing conspiracies, they either do not exist or that Jones is a part of them himself. Jones began shouting and interrupting, and Neil ended the interview, describing Jones as “an idiot”[134] and “the worst person I’ve ever interviewed”.[135][136] According to Neil on Twitter, Jones was still shouting until he knew that he was off-air.[134][135]
In April 2017, Jones was criticized for claiming that the Khan Shaykhun chemical attack was a hoax and false flag.[137][138] Jones stated that the attack was potentially carried out by civil defense group White Helmets, which he falsely claims are an Al-Qaeda-affiliated terrorist front financed by George Soros.[139][140]
Litigation
In February 2017, James Alefantis, owner of Comet Ping Pong pizzeria, sent Jones a letter demanding an apology and retraction of his advocacy for the Pizzagate conspiracy theory. Jones was given one month to comply or be subject to a libel suit.[141] In March 2017, Jones apologized to Alefantis and retracted his allegations.[142]
In April 2017, the Chobani yogurt company filed suit against Jones for his claims that their factory in Idaho employing refugees, was connected to a 2016 child sexual assault and a rise in tuberculosis.[143] As a result, Jones issued an apology and retraction of his allegations in May 2017.[144]
In March 2018, Brennan Gilmore, who shared a video he captured of a car hitting anti-racism protesters at the 2017 Unite the Right rally, filed a lawsuit against Jones and six others.[145] According to the lawsuit, Jones said that Gilmore was acting as part of a false flag operation conducted by disgruntled government “deep state” employees promoting a coup against Trump.[146] Gilmore alleged he received death threats from Jones’ audience.[146]
School shootings
Jones has spread conspiracy theories about the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting and 2018 Stoneman Douglas High School shooting being false flag operations by gun control advocates. He stated “no one died” in Sandy Hook and Stoneman Douglas survivor David Hogg was a crisis actor.[147][148][149] These claims have been proven false.[150][151]
In March 2018, six families of Sandy Hook victims and an FBI agent who responded to the attack, filed a defamation suit against Jones for spreading false claims, resulting in the harassment, stalking and threatening of survivors.[152][153][154][155] By February 2019, 10 families joined suits and won a series of court rulings requiring Jones to testify under oath.[92] Jones was later ordered to undergo a sworn deposition, along with three other defendants related to the operation of Infowars. He was also ordered to turn over internal business documents related to Infowars.[156] In this deposition, Jones acknowledged the deaths were real, stating he had “almost like a form of psychosis”, where he “basically thought everything was staged.”[157]
Leonard Pozner, father of a victim in the Sandy Hook shooting who has been forced to move several times to avoid harassment and death threats was accused by Jones of being a crisis actor. Pozner filed a defamation suit against Jones in Texas.[158] Jones was found to be in contempt of court even before the trial started, failing to produce witnesses and materials relevant to the procedures. Consequently, Jones and Infowars were fined a total of $126,000 in October and December 2019.[159]
