Ya, Since the early nineties I always realized that the news media was only reporting things in their best interest. (for the most part anyway) He talks a lot about the US concentration camps that they are building. (or built) But after all..the US does prison most percent of it's population compared to other countries. I think it's the way Alex words things also that makes things funny. One day he was saying "if the news media said Ronald Mcdonald knocked down the world trade center, everyone would still believe it."
shareI think you should keep watching him. He actually reports on what the big media doesn't want you to know.

Alex Jones is a huckster. He plays on the fears of right wing conspiracy theorists. I've seen video of him talking about the "13 bloodlines"--13 families who rule the world and have ruled the world for centuries. Also, you can find on his site prisonplanet, photos of people like George W. Bush and Bill Clinton making "the sign of the devil" with their hand (with the two middle fingers in a fist with the index and pinky pointed out). He has said that he believes the world is controlled by a secret satanic cult. Sorry, but that's pure silly fantasy. I mean, maybe it's true, anything's possible right? But offering up photos of presidents making a certain hand gesture as proof? Alex Jones just doesn't understand what qualifies as evidence. And he preys on the ignorant who also do not understand what evidence means.
But don't get me wrong, I've seen him cover stuff that appears legitimate. But that just makes my point. He will present all kinds of stuff--legitimate and "satanic cult" ridiculousness--because he is trying to appeal to a wide listening and viewing audience.

I don't mess around. That's who I am.
He's a fearmonger working for the bad guys. Ron Paul is also one of "them."
Whoever donated to his campaign has been added to the government "terror watch" list, so Ron Paul is just a bee collector working for the enemy. LOL!
Something was definitely up with Paul in the way he was acting after the super tuesday primaries.
u must kuestion everything! lol
Hail Eris!

I say watch him but be skeptical. Alex Jones have an agenda no doubt about it. But so do Fox news and MSM in USA etc.
Russia Today is also very good and actualy cover alot of politics in the US. But again be skeptical.
About Alex Jones he do have good angles but he come across as a bit nutty with some of his stuff. I agree alot with Alex Jones, but just wouldn't claim it as sensational. Take for example the statement that USA is drifting into fascism - AJ makes it sound like tomorrow ½ of the US will were brown shirts. I agree that USA is becoming more and more fascist, and have become so over the last 30 years accelerating in the last 10 years. But im not pulling out my tinfoil hat just yet.
Main point is "get your news from a few different sources and think for yourself".
By the way, watch LiberalViewer's channel on youtube. And if you think "liberal" = socialist. Please look up "liberal". I crinch when i hear americans call out people as liberals, so clueless :)
He's too paranoid and crazy. Unfortunately people like him do more damage than good. When there are real issues that need to be pointed out. Nobody wants to listen because idiots like him cry wolf all day.
Religion is regarded by the common people as true, by the wise as false, and by rulers as useful.
