This Elf must be stopped.
Realizing the headline isn't real:
You're being lied to... right now!
Give it time.
pictures for sad children.
I wasn't sure what to expect. But this was pretty good for what it is. Fuck Alex Jone and InfoWars.
Don't they own the Alex Jones character? I would have just used a generated Alex Jones suit on an actor and gotten increasingly uncanny with it.
When I was out and about today, I listened to the head of The Onion being interviewed on NPR. He talked a lot about the ways Alex Jones has tried to get out of paying the families of the Sandy Hook kids that were killed like he's required to. They tried to devalue Info Wars, and then have a shell company buy it at auction for a tiny amount so that there would be no money to pay the families. Apparently that was the original motivation for The Onion bidding on it and bidding it up: to make sure there was money for the families, and also they thought they could do something with it.
That whole thing is still in litigation, with Jones saying the company really has no value. So The Onion is releasing new content of the kind they intend to do on the site, in hopes that people will stream it and show the judge that there's an audience and a value. I decided to watch the first episode even if it's terrible, to give them the views.
It's not terrible, it's hilarious. Well worth watching. Note that some of the commercials are theirs, and you might not want to skip those.
Wow, he could have apologised and settled out of court at any time, and instead we get a worm crawling down every hole.
The conservative and libertarian mind can only ever think about themselves.
Alex Jones is truly a malevolent POS (person of shit) and so are his fans. I wish nothing but the worst for them.
I caught the live stream about halfway through. I skipped back to the beginning and I really enjoyed it. I plan on watching it every week, hopefully live, to help boost their numbers.
The ad for Oxygyn was truly hilarious and I like that they're still running with "Turn Your Piss into Gold."

None of them are real commercials, sadly, not even Turn Your Gold Into Piss

I'm being lied to... RIGHT now.
HOG WATER! HOG WATER! HOG WATER!
I DRINK HOG WATER WHEN I A CRANK MY HOG WITH MY BROTHERS!
Green is the best flavor!
The parody is just so on point. Could have gone with an even more clowny version of Alex J*nes, but extending the stuttering bluster to be the entire runtime of the show would be gauche.
I lost hope before that The Onion have lost the legal battle to acquire InfoWars. But alas, there is indeed a god!
They won the lawsuit like 4 months ago

He's been dead for 15 years, replaced by one of those Men In Black bodies with a bug in the head.
i'm pretty sure that's not where the bug is
My mistake, I couldn't tell
No worries. Standard model is head, but his pilot seat is allllll the way up his ass
I thought infowars.com was being taken over - is it not?
They are fighting as much as possible to prevent the onion takeover
He's still trying, but that's just typical Alex Jones bullshit. It's over, The Onion owns it, and Fatso doesn't stand a chance of getting it back.
leased*
Tim's going to completely shred his voice doing this character

Omg I have been waiting to see what they do with this IP. I gotta make sure I come back.
It looks like they'll be doing a live stream every Thursday evening.
Tonight's was great. I learned a lot. Like JFK didn't kill himself. I never ever considered that he might have been assassinated.
I was so sure he hung himself.
We are so lucky to have such honest and reliable news sources!
"We really have no idea how medium-up this goes."
It's definitely off to a good start.
