Far and away the best.

Alex needs to be Baker Acted, for everybody's good.

I guess he showed them what a nut job he truly is. AJ certainly is a poor representation of fine Americans.

about how the world's freedoms have disappeared, the EU is a Nazi plot, and how they're constantly threatening to kill him. David Aaronovitch does quite a good job of goading him into blowing up - I expect he knew Jones was unlikely to stay clam.

I doubt anyone will bother transcribing it.

Instead of tossing a live chicken into his cage, they just toss him a little reality, then stand back to watch the show.

He throws out dog-whistle words to lure people into infowars.com. You can catch him injecting it during the continuous stream of words- this is how he keeps getting new listeners. The guy who is moderating the show- he knew what he was getting into by booking Jones.

What you're seeing is a mutual stroking. The host gets a scene, ratings, and a story. Jones gets more exposure, more listeners.

Win-win.
