Summary

A Texas federal bankruptcy judge has ordered an evidentiary hearing to review the auction process that awarded Infowars to satire site The Onion, citing concerns about transparency.

Alex Jones, who owes $1.5 billion to Sandy Hook families, claims the process was “rigged” and expects the site to be returned to him.

Attorneys for Elon Musk’s X Corp. unexpectedly joined the case, with Jones suggesting Musk will play a key role.

Despite the sale proceeding, Jones resumed Infowars broadcasts, while The Onion plans to relaunch the platform as a satire in January. The hearing is set for next week.
