Megyn Kelly’s Alex Jones interview killed by conspiracy of people who don’t give a shit

After a pre-air controversy that swirled around experimental conscience transplant recipient Megyn Kelly interviewing America’s spasming pyloric valve Alex Jones, causing those on both sides of the spectrum to preemptively denounce it, the actual segment finally aired on NBC last night. As expected, it found Kelly confronting Jones on things like his complete lack of vetting on information he publishes, as well as some of his more contentious theories—such as that the murdered children at Sandy Hook were really just inventions of the government. For his part, Jones answered these charges by reminding Kelly that polls predicted Hillary Clinton would win the election and that, y’know, a lot of people died in Iraq too, and also the mainstream media, etc. etc. Truly theirs was a showdown for the ages—specifically the ages between 55 and 64—and when it was all said and dodged, everyone really came away having learned a lot about whatever they already thought going into it.

Unfortunately, the segment’s very important message—about the dangers of giving disproportionate attention to self-aggrandizing ideologues who view making damaging claims about dead children as a form of satirical, “devil’s advocate” performance art, and/or why we should do it this time—didn’t make much of an impact outside of anyone’s confirmation biases. Instead, it went almost totally ignored, covered up by a shadowy ring of globalist viewers who opted to watch an America’s Funniest Home Videos rerun instead.
