So not that long ago we heard that Alex Jones was personally suspended from Facebook.

0:05.3

I made a video talking about how if we're going to ban fake news, we should start with CNN.

0:11.7

And I'm not... the title was hyperbole. The point was not that everything CNN does is fake news.

0:18.9

I think they do pretty standard reporting. Not a big fan of their opinion panel stuff,

0:24.0

but when it comes to like things happening in the world, CNN's fine.

0:27.4

In fact, I think CNN's better than, you know, many of the partisan outlets.

0:32.0

I'm not a big fan of their commentary. I'm not a big fan of anyone's commentary.

0:34.9

The point I'm trying to make is that CNN has had a series of gaps,

the Alex Jones InfoWrested channel and I'm hearing a second channel. So I'm just trying to do, you know,

1:21.5

quick kind of breaking news update because this is serious. And, you know, talk about their

1:25.6

notifications. So I have an article pulled up Facebook, Apple, YouTube, and Spotify have banned

1:32.0

InfoWrested Alex Jones. And there's a conundrum here because personally I'm not a fan of Alex Jones.

1:39.3

I'm not a fan of a lot of what InfoWrested does. I'm not a fan of the hyperbolic hyperpartisan

1:43.6

content they produce. But I've been fairly defensive of it. You know, like the challenge is,
