Here are some of the most inane conspiracy theories pushed on InfoWars, typically by a shouting, boisterous Jones. Alarmist headlines warning of the dangers of Sudanese migrants or the NFL’s campaign of cultural marxism complement Jones’ regular (and loud) radio broadcasts.
Unlike far-right news sites such as Breitbart that produce occasional journalism, InfoWars specializes in the blatantly unverifiable, purely speculative, and utterly fictitious. Today, it receives roughly 4.8 million unique visitors per month. Run by Jones, a far-right radio host and renowned conspiracy theorist, InfoWars was once a niche conspiracy site. Since then, InfoWars videos have been aired during Trump rallies, its articles have been tweeted out by Trump campaign operatives, and White House even linked to an InfoWars article in a press release. InfoWars bulldozed into the national spotlight during the 2016 election, when President Donald Trump phoned into Alex Jones’ radio show during the primaries.
