The trial in a defamation lawsuit against the InfoWars host, brought by Sandy Hook parents, hasn't been going his way for a while.
The consequences of conspiracy-mongering from Alex Jones have been horrific. It's not just that people who've endured the worst thing imaginable—their six-year-old children getting shot in math class—have to hear someone call them fakers. Some of Jones's fans have even showed up outside their homes, they say, harassing and intimidating them. All of this has prompted a lawsuit (well, more than one) from some Sandy Hook parents accusing Jones of defamation. Things have not been looking good for Jones for a while in one of these cases, but they really started to look not-good when he took the stand Wednesday. Specifically, there was the moment where Mark Bankston, an attorney representing Sandy Hook families, revealed to the InfoWars luminary that Jones's own lawyers had mistakenly sent the entire contents of his phone—years of communications—to Bankston's team. The moment is something to behold. |

"I don't think of my assailant. He took so much away from me, and even more away from the families of the six people he murdered. At Jared Lee Loughner's sentencing hearing, my husband [former astronaut and current U. S. senator Mark Kelly] told him, 'You have decades upon decades to contemplate what you did. But after today, after this moment, here and now, Gabby and I are done thinking about you.' I'd rather spend my energy on channeling that pain into purpose than giving him another ounce of myself." |

Bourbon, and all whiskey really, is subject to passionate obsession as much as anything else that people have strong feelings about—music, food, cars, movies, etc. How you feel about bourbon is entirely subjective, although there are a few objective truths: it must be made from a mash bill containing at least 51 percent corn, aged in new charred oak containers (not barrels, even though virtually all bourbon is aged in them), distilled in the U.S., and meet certain proof requirements. If you are in the market for a little guidance as to what might be a quality bourbon to try, one that you can actually find for less than $100 per bottle (and mostly much less than that), here is an updated list of twelve bourbon brands to drink now. |
