Alex Jones' fear-mongering on Infowars achieved much more than sow the seeds of hate and distrust.
Jones' wealth, and the tremendous earnings of his maligned website Infowars, came under the spotlight during the just-finished lawsuit filed by the parents of a Sandy Hook shooting victim.A Texas jury penalised conspiracy theorist Alex Jones with US $45.2 million in punitive damages in a lawsuit filed by the parents of Sandy Hook shooting victim Jesse Lewis.
And financial records tendered to the court showed that when Jones pushed his evil falsehoods, the cash poured in through his Infowars website, with customers snapping up supplements, survival gear, documentaries and other products sold online.
