The mainstream media failed to hold Alex Jones accountable for more than 30 years. A satire company is poised to do what journalism wouldn’t.
Ben Collins knows why. As a former far-right extremism reporter inside mainstream media, he watched newsrooms normalize and platform Alex Jones’ conspiracy theories in the name of “both sides” journalism. Now he’s chief executive officer of The Onion’s parent company, Global Tetrahedron — the company poised to turn Infowars into the joke it’s always been.
Infowars founder Alex Jones owes more than $1.4 billion to Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting families after years of defamation and harassment. In 2024, a bankruptcy court thwarted The Onion’s winning bid to buy Infowars and share proceeds with the Sandy Hook families.
Last month, The Onion reached a deal to license the Infowars website and its intellectual property for six months. Then Jones won an appeal to stop the process. But the appeal could be overturned at any moment, allowing The Onion to finally have the last laugh over Infowars.
This week, Katelyn and Christine discuss the evolving situation with Collins. Why did it take a satire company to defeat Infowars? His answer is a structural indictment of journalism itself.

Welcome to the bizarro world of “better-for-you” candy
I grabbed three popular vegan candies from YumEarth to see if they actually hit or if this is just health food cosplay. Are these legit swaps for your favorite classics, or are we lying to ourselves in the name of ingredients we can pronounce?
