Further, during a child custody case, Jones’ attorney admitted that Alex Jones is a “performance artist.”

I don't get why people make such a big deal about this. They seem to think "Yeah! We finally got him, this will take him down!" What radio or TV broadcaster doesn't have an on-air persona? Why is this surprising that Jones in real life isn't exactly how he is on air?

A factual search reveals that HuffPost had a failed fact check in the past, but promptly removed the article when it was discovered. They also published an Unproven Claim that was not corrected. Given that they corrected a false claim they earn High for factual reporting.

Overall, we rate HuffPost Left-Biased due to story selection that favors the left and factually High due to proper sourcing of information. (5/13/2016) Updated (M. Huitsing 6/19/2019)
