The Importance of Prayer: How a Christian Gold Company Stands Out by Defending Americans’ Retirement
A bankruptcy judge on Tuesday rejected a bid by The Onion’s parent company to buy Alex Jones’ far-right media empire, including the website Infowars, ruling that the auction process was unfair.
U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Christopher Lopez said after a two-day hearing that The Onion’s parent company, Global Tetrahedron, had not submitted the best bid and was wrongly named the winner of an auction last month by a court-appointed trustee.
“I don’t think it’s enough money,” Lopez said in a late-night ruling from the bench in a Houston court. “I’m going to not approve the sale.”
It was not immediately clear whether there would be a new auction in which The Onion could bid again for Jones’ assets. Lopez said he would leave the decision about what to do next in the hands of the trustee, Christopher Murray, who had overseen the auction.
The judge said Murray had acted in good faith in running the auction in which The Onion’s parent company initially appeared to prevail, but he said the trustee did not run a transparent process and should have given a rival bidder associated with Jones another chance to improve its bid.
“I think you’ve got to go out and try to get every dollar,” Lopez said.
The ruling dashed, at least for now, Global Tetrahedron’s plans to take over Infowars and radically shift its content from anti-government conspiracy theories to satirical humor.
The Global Tetrahedron bid consisted of two components: $1.75 million in cash and a noncash pledge by some of the bankruptcy case creditors — families of the victims of the 2012 Sandy Hook school shooting in Connecticut — to forgo the proceeds they would typically receive from the sale. Some of the families partnered with The Onion in its bid.
Will allies or admirers of Jones and Infowars be able to take another shot at saving the network? For now, the future of both are still murky but at least the company can continue to broadcast.
