Alex Jones

[memphisgreg]

What do people on here think about him? Just curious. I find him intriguing and abrasive at the same time.

who?

funny, i saw the name Alex Jones and before I read this I thought of the word "kookjob"... kookjob, nutjob... same thing...

he taped himself to a traffic camera and also refused to submit to fingerprinting in his days as an Austin Access Cable TV host...

He also had a brief rant in Linklater's Waking Life...

he's good for entertainment...

quoting Alex Jones over and over again is about the farthest thing from quantifiable, educated research...

this guy is a nut...

he once tied himself to a light pole and was arrested for refusing to give a fingerprint at the DMV in Austin...

he was also featured in linklaters Waking Life

my statement about Alex Jones was all-inclusive of anything that he "wrote or directed"

so to answer your question, I havent seen it nor do I want to spend the next two hours watching it so I can answer your questions or share my thoughts.

I know enough about Jones from when he was a pimple faced public television icon in Austin, a glorified Waynes World broadcasting from a basement, where he would begin his career as a conspiracy theorist and "ex Paleo-conservative"

I respect Alex Jones and his work, I have seen him grow as a media celebrity, and I loved his rant in Waking Life. But I take little of his information as important to the debate of 9/11

and for the record, I do not subscribe to the "You're either with us or with the terrorists" ethos.

I do not support George Bush, his administration, or the war in Iraq.


common sense, people, common sense

I feel ya on that.

[DroppinScience]

His rants are entertaining (used perfectly in "Waking Life" for sure), but you'd have to be a real kook to buy into him.

I'm dropping him from my myspace friends list. I can't say I believe this crap he's sending me. Sounds like he has an agenda too. Imagine that - Truth seekers with Agendas. HA.

What do you think his agenda is?

you should see Jon Josef's bulletins that he sends out...

[memphisgreg]

That's why I started this thread - seeing if anyone knew somehting about the "agenda". His stories seem "fabricated" to match the needs of the times. Convenient.

Maybe he's attention starved? I dunno. Not really into him.

Alex Jones was arrested for confronting George W in 1998. This guy is intense!
