I noticed his little fake attempt to pretend he doesn't push his show as 'real news', that he actually is engaged in 'opinion', 'punditry', 'commentary', and he just addresses other ' news sources' ' shocking revelations about current events.
Try to get any info about exactly what 'news sources' he's relying on, and he suddenly isn't a pundit, he's a journalist who is protecting his source.
One of the few 'sources' he was willing to cop to relying on was zerohedge, and the deposition taker pointed out that the zerohedge article was actually just covering what Jones was saying about Sandy Hook. Zerohedge used Jones as a source, then Jones tried to use zerohedge as a source, as 'proof' he's just a pundit style observer or commentator.
I also liked how the depo taker tried to ask Jones if there was a difference between 'that woman is pretty' and 'portapotties were delivered in the first hour', or if they were both just 'opinions', or 'statements of fact'. (about 97 minutes in, ~ 11:08).
Notice how sometimes Roger Stone worked for Jones, sometimes Jones worked for Alex Jones. Sometimes Jones worked for tRump, sometimes tRump works for Jones. Sometimes Rudy works for Lev, sometimes Lev works for Rudy. Sometimes Rudy works for Rump, for free. Like Manafort did. Sometimes Rudy is working for himself, not Rump.
