RE: Alex Jones Scoops Megyn Kelly; Leaks Full Tapes
Even left-wing spin machine Media Matters is struggling to turn this into anything other than a train wreck for MSM and Kelly.
Quote:After it aired, seeking to bolster the image that he won the night, he and his cronies drank a champagne toast on camera. As Jones again tried to take over the story online, the NBC News and Megyn Kelly twitter feeds went dark, ceding him the social space.
The radio host wanted more attention, and he got it, seeking to build his audience by portraying himself as the mainstream media’s victim. Thanks to Kelly’s failure to control her own narrative, he may well succeed.

I don't see it but even ceding a bad night for Megyn (a stretch), that doesn't give him an automatic touchdown.
He came across horribly. And no, not because of editing. His own demeanor and words. Wouldn't answer questions. Kept wiping his brow. Looked closer and he was sweating his ass off. Kelly, 2 feet away, wasn't.
Surrounding himself with other loons and throwing a party I suppose can look good to those who want to believe.

She calls him on his bs because, of course, they were just kids. Being the little weasle pos he is, he bs's some more that when he said that they hadn't released the ages yet. Um, it was an Ariana Grande concert. Who did you think was there, you lying pos. But the "media misrepresented" his own words from his own mouth from his own video. Give me a break.
Must really change course after that if he cleans her clock. I'll continue watching but I suspect it delusion to believe he came out on top.
He was talking about the UK's/EU's political leaders who actively import islamic fighters in the name of liberalism, only to be attacked/bombed for their troubles. Obviously children were not the ones advocating for these policies, nor were they the ones being blamed. You're using information that he couldn't possibly have known at the time, to frame him after the fact. Sad.
I knew this was wrong but wanted to wait and go back and re-listen.
"A big bomb goes off at a pop stars rock concert, bombing a bunch of liberal trendies.
His words. On video. He wasn't talking about people who advocate policy being bombed. They "obviously" weren't. He clearly said the people at the concert were bombed.

You seem to spend a heck of a lot of time being concerned with this guy.
I have somehow managed to be a pretty avid consumer of libertarian to right leaning media and I have honestly not seen one minute of Alex Jones or his schtick. If I wanted to I'd have to search him out. I don't...so I don't. Use the clicker.
I also don't watch that lunatic on MSNBC that looks like Millhouse from the Simpsons. Don't spend much time bitching about her, either.

Yeah, right, sure. Lol.
I've never tuned into his show either. Why would I. He's a nut. But he has a lot of fans on this site who link to his bs a LOT. No one brings him up... I have no reason to rebut his bs. Fans don't lie about what he's said, no need in me correcting their lies.
You might also notice who started the thread. Not me.
RE: Alex Jones Scoops Megyn Kelly; Leaks Full Tapes
I watched last night. She did a great job of letting him explain who he is. I can't understand how anyone would come away from this interview believing it was good for Alex Jones, but then, I can't understand would believe a damn thing he spews.

I can't understand what you can't understand about him not understanding what she might or might nor have have understood about him (not that she understood anything), if you understand what I mean.
Understand though, that understanding is key to obtain a comprehensive understanding of what needs to be understood.
Not that I understand any of this, I'm just saying. Try to understand.

RE: Alex Jones Scoops Megyn Kelly; Leaks Full Tapes
i'm a fan of alex jones, i don't like everything he says, but he seems like an extremely likable guy. but why would he be pissed if kelly lied to him? why should he care at all if he's asked about his positions? he seems passionate about it and would like nothing more to talk about 'em

To me he basically called himself a tabloid shock jock. I can see how some people could find him entertaining but no one should act on his "reports". There's a reason why tabloids sell.

That's what I saw.
He does not hold himself accountable for the proven misinformation he purposefully disseminates, but seemingly seeks credibility. He doesn't source his own material and has a team that scourers the internet looking for material to put in front of him. How anyone could look to this guy for news is beyond me.

3.5 million viewers bahahahaha
Kelly couldn't even get the dead cat bounce. Just the 2 minutes video that Cernovich put out that spliced together her lies about how it wouldn't be a hit piece on the phone with NBC's preview did 6 million views on his Facebook.
