Alex Jones’ Infowars has found a new owner: The Onion. In a move that the organization says was sanctioned by the families of the victims of the Sandy Hook mass shooting, the satirical news publication has taken over the very publication that for years promoted the conspiracy theory the shooting was a hoax.
Fittingly, Global Tetrahedron CEO Bryce P. Tetraeder addressed his decision to buy the site in an article posted on The Onion’s website. Tetraeder wrote that the decision to acquire the site was an “easy one” for the Global Tetrahedron executive board, calling Infowars an “invaluable tool for brainwashing and controlling the masses.”
“InfoWars has shown an unswerving commitment to manufacturing anger and radicalizing the most vulnerable members of society — values that resonate deeply with all of us at Global Tetrahedron,” Tetraeder continued. “No price would be too high for such a cornucopia of malleable assets and minds. And yet, in a stroke of good fortune, a formidable special interest group has outwitted the hapless owner of Infowars (a forgettable man with an already-forgotten name) and forced him to sell it at a steep bargain: less than one trillion dollars.”
