    In case anyone is wondering how that happened, The Onion had a slightly lower bid, but it was literally the only bidder who would promise to dismantle the thing.

    Everyone else trying to buy it was not only trying to continue to ‘media outlet’, but would have almost certainly hired Alex Jones, which was exactly what the Sandy Hook parents were trying to avoid.

    Someone probably will still hire him to spew his gibberish, but at least the platform and brand is gone.Report
