New evidence shows Alex Jones’ InfoWars sales volume exploded during Sandy Hook false 'hoax' programming


Much of the questioning Thursday turned on the extraordinarily high social media traffic associated with Jones’ multiple websites and broadcasting operation in late September 2014 before and after his interview with Sandy Hook denier Wolfgang Halbig, who became a regular guest on Jones’ broadcasts. — Abaca Press/TNS

Sandy Hook parents revealed new records in court Thursday that show conspiracy theorist Alex Jones’ company ran sophisticated analyses of his web-based businesses and knew his sales volume exploded during programming portraying the Newtown school shootings as a government hoax.

In one remarkable example, Jones’ internal records show that in September 2014, the single-day sales total at just one of his half dozen Internet sales sites jumped 500%, from US$48,000 (RM217,680) to US$232,000 (RM1.05mil) , after Jones interviewed a notorious Sandy Hook denier about a phony news report asserting that no one died at the school, according to a record produced in court.
