These are all flimsy excuses for having a listen to A.J. ... Chomsky is and always was alternative media. He was on Jones's show and one need only to have a listen and Jones's lying self is immediately apparent... totally disingenuous. His technique is to agree with the guest, then push the Overton window further to the extreme, then dismiss the guest, then castigate the guest after they have left the interview. I suspect Media Roots of having been intro'd to Jones via the Richard Linklater film "Waking Life" (which says a whole lot more about the brainwashing to be 'cool' prevalent on the instant gatification  wannabe-left).

Chomsky correctly identified the 9-11 narrative as a rabbit hole & has warned those willing to listen that the internet is curious as a conspiracy generator that most working class people don't possess the investigative tools (not to mention the time) necessary to properly research the types of narratives (meaning propaganda, sophisticated or otherwise) to come to an informed conclusion, which is what labor movemnets have always historically done in order to educate the masses. I thought that Abby would have known better, and while she has eventually come around (thanks in part to Chomsky), she still straddles the fence when giving a pass to the curent clique of podcast-journo class of which she is a part (ie:Taibbi, Greenwald, Blumenthal..), & who often cite (use) or interview (use) Chomsky in order to illicit bona fides/respect from their adoring fans, only to often immediately counter his well-reasoned and correct analysis the moment a new show begins... sickening and sad, really.

Ha-ha! I guessed correctly (see previous post written before they actually mention that they HAD seen A.J. in Linklater's films. I met Linklater at a talk he was giving about his films, and he is the typical ego-obsessed director without much concern with negative repercussions resulting from his work.

For those interested in understanding the seeming dichotomy of Jewish Holocaust denial / Nazi-sympathiser/participation, see Chris Hedges interviews with Gabriel Rockhill at the following linkage: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LslqcJiM_OM   and   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HUcmVwoO-PY

That's true that Jim Tucker from AFP denied the Holocaust, but you're also missing a point in that despite Alex Jones's unusual obsession and often over-focus of Bilderberg, Jones will practically sell you any conspiracy theory out there, including those he can instantly conjure up, and that is undeniable by what you have all stated so far (which I'm also sure you will discuss his abandonment of non-interventionist principles) but Jones being associated to Tucker does not influence him in that regard,  as he will not get near and has NEVER touched Holocaust revisionism.

regardless Alex Jones, I can list 100 names, making similar accusations & conclusions, don't for fuck sake loose your way, it's in the open, it's not hidden, so fucking obvious

You didn't do your research. You are repeating lies. You should be sued for 2.75 Trillion dollars. Find another job.

Abby and Robbie are joined by Mike Prysner for a special two part Media Roots Radio on Alex Jones. Part one goes over the real history of Alex Jones dominating alternative media and poison pilling government skepticism. The Sandy Hook trial is explained, as well as Alex’s pathological, malicious lying about the mass shooting.
