The Onion buys Alex Jone's Infowars, and it's already having fun with it's purchase


In a story worthy of ‘The Onion,’ the satirical publication bought Alex Jones’s ‘Infowars’ in an auction, with some help from the families of Sandy Hook victims.


“Not The Onion” is an expression common on social media sites whenever news breaks that is so absurd or ironic, it smacks of [i]The Onion[/i]-like satire.

Usually, such news doesn’t actually involve [i]The Onion[/i], though.
On Thursday morning, the nation’s premier satirical news site announced it had purchased Alex Jones’s conspiracy-fueled [i]Infowars[/i], and all its assets, for an undisclosed price at auction. In other words, a website already so untethered from reality it had been sued into bankruptcy for spreading dangerous lies, is now owned by a publication famously even less reliant on facts.
