Alex Jones requests the same respectful, dignified media coverage he’s granted so many
We’re already three days into the chili-stained circus of radio host Alex Jones’ custody trial, and it’s been going pretty well. (For a batshit crazy version of “well,” at least) So far, Jones—a man who thinks 9/11, the moon landing, and the shootings at Sandy Hook Elementary were all faked by insidious attention seekers, and who has propagated those ideas to thousands—has already talked openly about zebra hunting, his status as the king of the memes, and the relative dankness of government pot. But now, as things get more serious, he’s asking for people to stop having quite so much fun with what a ridiculous human being he is, and treat him with the same journalistic decorum and respect he’s granted so many others.
“I urge the press to be respectful and responsible and to show due deference to the process of the law and respect boundaries defined for this case so that a fair result can be found,” Jones wrote. “Above all this is a private matter. This is about my family and only my family. I have endeavored very faithfully for three years to keep this circumstance confidential for the sake of my children to protect their innocence.”
