#2That's probably still a net profit for Alex Jones. According to the documents discussed in court he makes $800,000 a day from his show.
If anything, he probably made more covering his own trial than what the trial cost.

#3I hope they throw the book at him for punitive damages as well. Maybe then people will learn you don't get to sit there spouting blatant lies without consequence.
I thought forwarding his messages to the jan6 committee was just a stunt but apparently there's some juicy stuff in there. Will be interesting to see what comes out of it.

#4So all the memes aside, is anyone else astounded at how poorly that went for Alex Jones? Just a shit-show nearly the entire time. From his terrible legal representation, to his own terrible testimony. Just a mess.
I mean, his 'on-air' personality is a mess, but I always sort of thought it was just a show. It's interesting to me that it turned out he really is just an absolute train-wreck of a person.

Jeez! 800k per day. That is obscene, for a charlatan. How much of this is profit I wonder.
4M is chump change for someone making THAT much money. Plus, who knows how much money his nut job supporters are donating to him.

Is this from advertising, or are people buying things directly from him?
That companies would advertise their wares next to such an absolute shame of a man is beyond comprehension.

That per day figure is misleading since it was a particularly good couple of days. But yeah he still made tons of money over the years at the families’ expense.

#8I'm curious if it will get reduced or overturned on appeal.

There are still punitive damages to decide, which are going to factor in his worth.

I am astounded how someone can sit on the stand and spew lie after lie after lie under oath with no repercussions.
