Conspiracy theorist extraordinaire Alex Jones may finally be off the air.
Jones got walloped in the Sandy Hook defamation lawsuit.
The jury awarded families $965 million, about four times what Jones could be worth.
Time to File
Jones was talking tough as the verdict was coming.
In a bit of a classless move, he was ranting during a stream as the family members of the Sandy Hook massacre were being told the verdict…
As the jury reads the damages and the Sandy Hook parents weep, Alex Jones is on his broadcast, laughing and assuring his audience that he won't actually be paying any of this money.

Jones has stated that he will appeal.
This plan, at this point, is to tie up the case for as long as possible in the courts to avoid the payment.
At most, Jones is worth about $250 million, but I think that may be generous.
Regardless, he does not have the money to pay this suit.
The parent company of InfoWars, Free Speech Systems, is already seeking bankruptcy protection.
There are other cases out there that have massive paydays that he will have to bankroll.
I don’t see how he comes out of this with so much as a penny.
