    Alex Jones Shocks Many After Leaking An Audio of a conversation He had Earlier With Kelly

    Infowars host Alex Jones has revealed that he struck a conversation with Megyn before she finally engaged him for her NBC Sunday newsmag. In support of his claim, he leaked an audio of the conversation they had. He has sparked speculation worldwide after he added that he had more where that came from.

    According to Deadline.com, Jones was unhappy with a recent promo which he claims distorted his remarks. He has contacted NBC requesting it not to air the interview.NBC won’t be distracted by the much backlash from various quarters, including parents of children murdered at Sandy Hook Elementary School. It has confirmed that it will move ahead with Sunday’s broadcast and it won’t allow anything else stand on its way.

    Sandy Hook Promise is an anti-gun violence group that was formed by parents of those children that lost their lives in the 2012 Newtown, CT School shooting. Jones has dismissed it calling it a hoax. This particular week saw Kelly dismissed as the host of its fundraiser gala and this of course took place in Washington, DC.

    The other person that clearly seemed to be taking issue with Sunday’s broadcast was poobah Tom Brokaw of NBC News. In a recent interview with a top news reporter, he seemed to air out his stand in relation to the matter.

    In making his statement, Brokaw said, “There’s a lot of controversy around this network about Alex Jones. The fact is that he is an unalloyed racist, a man who is out there pulling the pin on the grenade every day and he has 6 million viewers who are paying attention to him.”

    Jones has dismissed the video that has been circulating this evening citing that that he knows what conversation he had with Kelly and he had even gone ahead to record it. He added that he had never in 22-years time ever recorded another journalist. He dismisses the matter as a fraud that no one should even pay attention to.

    The great shocker has been the utterances by Jones who described Kelly as a sex-thirsty lady who was willing to do anything to get intimate with him. The controversy continues to heat up, but how it ends is something we just have to wait and see.

  • Megyn Kelly Decides To Interview Alex Jones Amid Chaos

    Megyn Kelly Decides To Interview Alex Jones Amid Chaos

    NBC is defending Megyn Kelly’s decision to interview Alex Jones despite the public calls to abscond the show. Most of the relatives of the victims who lost their lives during the 2012 Sandy Hook shootings have decided to embarrass Kelly on Twitter but NBC has decided to defend her.

    NBC plans to air the full interview on Sunday and one of the show executive producers is pleading with people to withhold their judgment until the interview is over. People are being urged to give it a chance so that they can air their views only after watching the whole program in its full context.

    Kelly has also tried to defend her upcoming show despite the criticism that people are taking on Alex Jones. Some people have raised concern that Kelly is giving a podium to a conspiracy theorist who had earlier referred to the 2012 massacre, which occurred at Sandy Hook Elementary School as a ‘hoax’.

    Most people feel that giving Jones a platform would mean he is unchallenged by any means. Some people are also questioning the source of his theories and information. Jones has been influential in the social media, and his radio show reaches millions of fans. His own website, the Infowars.com attracts more than five million new visitors each month.

    To most people, Jones remarks on the Sandy Hook massacre are not only unjustifiable but also careless, distasteful and downright strange. Jones also presumes that the 9/11 attack on the Twin Towers was an ‘internal plan’ and that people tend to create the ‘animal-human hybrids’ hence no one can be trusted.

    Jones has been portrayed as one of the controversial public figures though it would be good to give him a chance for the interview. According to NBC, it’s necessary to interview any potential newsmakers and influential people regardless of their perspectives on life in general.

    Though the affected people who lost their loved ones called Kelly to cancel the interview, it’s likely that with the support from NBC and other key people in the society, the interview could go ahead as planned.
