Part 2/8:
Alex Jones built his media empire on a foundation of sensational content and controversial conspiracy theories. His most notorious claims emerged after the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting on December 14, 2012, where 26 lives were tragically lost. In the aftermath, Jones infamously labeled the grieving families as "crisis actors" and pushed the narrative that the shooting was a false flag orchestrated by the Obama Administration. Jones's rhetoric led to years of harassment for the families involved, prompting them to seek justice through defamation lawsuits against him.
