Overview
- Infowars.com, which showed an "Off Air" notice Friday, went offline after the court‑appointed receiver stopped paying studio bills, according to Alex Jones.
- The Texas Third Court of Appeals granted an emergency stay Thursday that blocked the receiver from licensing Infowars’ trademarks and domain to The Onion, with a status hearing set for May 28.
- Global Tetrahedron, The Onion’s parent, had agreed in April to pay $81,000 per month for six months to use the Infowars name and website and route proceeds to Sandy Hook families.
- The Onion tapped comedian Tim Heidecker to front a satirical relaunch and he hosted a surprise livestream, even as lawyers on both sides contest the transfer.
- Jones signed off from Infowars and now streams under new branding on sites like X, Rumble, and alexjoneslive.com, while families holding more than $1.3 billion in defamation judgments await payments.
