Alex Jones literally owned by the libs now

The satirical news site The Onion has purchased conspiracy theorist Alex Jones’ Infowars website following his bankruptcy proceedings. The development is a massive humiliation for one of Donald Trump’s most prominent and deranged supporters, who has spent his time in the public eye promoting outlandish, nonsensical, and harmful conspiracy theories.

The left-leaning comedy site will now own the Infowars website, its mailing list, and inventory, including the completely useless dietary supplements (Brain Force!) that Jones has made a fortune selling to his devoted listeners.

“Does anybody need millions of dollars worth of supplements?” Onion CEO Ben Collins mockingly asked on social media following the announcement.

The company said that going forward the Infowars site will mock the conspiracy culture it once led, along with outlandish figures like Jones.

You're OWNED, Alex - or "pwned" as I've seen in written, by the folks you certainly worked hard to lie and spread hate about.

Now YOU are the one who'll have to eat it.
