'It's Crazy': Michael Kosta Nails Weirdest Hypocrisy Of Alex Jones' Audience
HuffPost
The far-right conspiracy theorist's business empire is heading for liquidation -- and "The Daily Show" correspondent has some thoughts.
“Daily Show” correspondent Michael Kosta said the collapse of Alex Jones’ Infowars disinformation empire is proof that dishonesty has consequences.
“The good news here is that this shows that if you maliciously lie to the American people you will be held accountable,” he said. “Like 0.3% of the time.”
The rest of the time, he noted, you could get elected president ― and a picture of Donald Trump appeared as he spoke.
Kosta referred to Jones as the “Boner Pillsbury Doughboy,” a reference to the wide range of dietary supplements peddled on Infowars. Jones was pushing his pills this week even as his company heads into liquidation.
“It’s crazy that his listeners think the vaccine is gonna kill them, but then they spend hundreds of dollars on off-label weight-loss supplements,” said Kosta. “I don’t want anything weird in my body ― that’s why I take bethyl-poly-etrizol 15G and tiger gut.”
