The next 4 years are going to be an absolute farce in the US.
You don’t think a fox news host is a great SecDef? Or a non-practicing briefly disbarred AG?

>I, personally, haven’t read onion content in a long, long while The onion was kind of dead for a while under various shitty owners, but was bought this year by Jeff Lawson of Twilio and is now being run by former NBC reporter Ben Collins. The new stuff since the acquisition has been a bit hit or miss, but at least they're trying again.

Maybe the families were more interested in fixing the issue than in receiving some blood money in exchange for continued harm.
Well they asked for money, not "fixing the issue", which is not enforceable anyway without violating the 1st so that's not even a power the court has. Alex Jones will still be able to speak and profit from it, just not under the Infowars brand.
The 1st amendment doesn't protect all forms of speech. Shouting Fire in a theater, sedition, inciting mobs, entrapment, accessory to a crime (by encouraging someone to do it). None of these are covered in the 1st Amendment.

Fair enough. I didn't know it was a walkover in the end. And it is not really surprising there was no sane defence. I believe Info Wars etc becoming big is pretty much a symptom rather than the problem. And it has escalated lately. I fear that they will be used as excuses for getting at others.
> I believe Info Wars etc becoming big is pretty much a symptom rather than the problem I believe the problem is how incredibly easy it is to both disseminate and consume utter bullshit. You're no longer that weird loner in town. You go online and can find hundreds and thousands of people who agree with you. Why would you go find people that challenge your views, when you can get those dopamine highs from people who…
Obviously in some kind of minority, but I love having my views challenged. It’s how I grow. I want people to argue with me, though ideally, respectfully.

Seriously stop. He’s a decorated combat veteran with 20 years in the military and two Ivy League degrees.
