Alex Jones Could Regain Control of Infowars

Summary

Alex Jones might regain control of Infowars if a bankruptcy court can't find a buyer for the platform. Jones owes over $1.4 billion to Sandy Hook families due to defamation lawsuits, and Infowars’ sale was intended to help pay these judgments. Without a buyer, the media platform may revert to Jones, complicating the efforts of Sandy Hook families to collect their awarded damages.
