AUSTIN, Texas — The right-wing radio host and conspiracy theorist Alex Jones is a performance artist whose true personality is nothing like his on-air persona, according to a lawyer defending the "Infowars" broadcaster in a child custody battle.
Attorney Randall Wilhite said at a pretrial hearing in Austin last week that evaluating Jones based on his on-air comments is like judging Jack Nicholson based on his role as the Joker in "Batman."
But Kelly Jones described her ex-husband as "not a stable person," according to the Austin American-Statesman. She said he is threatening toward others, noting homophobic comments he's made about Democratic U.S. Rep. Adam Schiff and a challenge to fight actor Alec Baldwin. He broadcasts from home, she said, and that exposes their children to his incendiary behavior. . . .
I think in such cases you shouldn't be putting a lot of weight to what a public figure says or does in "on air". That doesn't mean you disregard it completely only that it should be secondary. How people act when "on air" is often very different from how they act in private. I do think she does have a good point about doing his broadcasts from home, though.
Speaker to Animals wrote:I am not a man because I find it stupid to laugh at a man from whom the state is trying to rob his children? Please. Go fuck yourself. It's not funny.
Someone help this trapped peacock escape the thread.
His feathers are all ruffled.
Aww crybaby bitch doesnt want to know the real life consequences of his behavior while laughing at someone for experiencing those consequences for same behavior. You took to long of a break. You got old, you went soft, you lost a step, your shitposting supremacy has been supplanted. Your retirement should have been permanent.
