Alex Jones

1974 – 20??

alive

Alex Jones is an American far-right conspiracy theorist and founder of Infowars, a media outlet that has heavily promoted dangerous disinformation, most notably the false claim that the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting was fabricated, which subjected victims' families to years of severe harassment and resulted in courts ordering him to pay more than $1 billion in defamation damages. Through his syndicated radio program and websites, he has consistently spread debunked conspiracy theories about mass shootings, public health emergencies, and political events, fueling radicalization, real-world threats, and widespread erosion of public trust.
