Jones and his attorneys keep insisting that they need to play the entire four hour show to get proper context for the clips they play.

each and every time they play a video, no matter what, Jones answers with "You mean in that edited video? I don't remember. It's so edited."
Q. But, Mr. Jones, when you said this to your audience, you knew that wasn’t the school. You knew that, right?
MR. ENOCH: Are you saying that’s part of his broadcast?
MR. BANKSTON: Yes. It says InfoWars right there on the bottom.
MR. ENOCH: Is that part of the same broadcast?
MR. BANKSTON: Yes. Do you see where it says InfoWars?

Like, even when they ask Alex jones if that is him in the video Jones says "In that highly edited video? Yes."

quote:

Q. (BY MR. BANKSTON) Do you agree that’s the Megyn Kelly broadcast we were watching? That interview
in the middle was from the Megyn Kelly interview?
A. I saw part of that. I mean, it was so fast,I...
Q. We’ll keep it slow. We’ll keep going --
A. I watch Court TV and stuff. Nobody plays edited tapes.

The video of a Megyn Kelley interviewing Alex Jones was playing too fast for Alex Jones to keep up.

It's kind of baffling how easy it is to confuse and incapacitate Alex Jones.

Edit: his entire defense is "I just report on what other people are saying". It's not his fault he was saying wrong stuff: he was just repeating what others said. Like how you wouldn't arrest someone for just transporting drugs.

He's just doing that to muddy the waters and get his dumb falsehood on record.

He also said he super researched things independently so that's not much of a defense.

Q (BY MR. BANKSTON) The first thing, you admit now there are no e-mails between City Council and the School in which Sandy Hook was being shut down; that’s not a real thing?
A. This is almost seven years old, but I do believe that we wouldn’t -- I mean, sometimes we’re wrong about things; but there’s always some news we’re covering or a witness or something. So I can’t answer that because of just memory.
Q. (BY MR. BANKSTON) Mr. Jones, you said it was seven years ago?
A. Six years ago, whatever it was.
Q. You just -- that stuff we just played you was April 22nd, 2017. That was a year before you were sued,right?
A. It was 3 seconds long.
Q. Right. But it’s not seven years ago, is it, Mr. Jones? You were saying that a year before you were sued.
A. I can’t answer. It’s out of context. I don’t know what you’re showing me.

FilthyImp posted:

I think you'll find Alex Jones has a bulletproof defense to that:

quote:

Q. (BY MR. BANKSTON) By the end of 2014 you had personally done intensive research; and you concluded it was all fake, correct?
A. The specific areas I was talking about being fact, not in a totality.
When Bankston repeats the question to try to get words that equal an answer Jones's lawyers object until it's dropped.

So...check mate.

quote:

Q. Yeah, I get that. I get that. Let’s take a look at something you said right before the Megyn Kelly interview. Okay? And this is on June 13th, 2017.
(video playing)

Q. (BY MR. BANKSTON) How did you determine [there were no EMTs at sandy Hook]?

A. I was reading someone else’s report.

Q. (BY MR. BANKSTON) Mr. Jones, I’m going to lean up here so I can kind of point a little bit. Do you see here where it says, "What Alex Jones really believes about Sandy Hook?"

A. Yes, I do.

Q. Do you see where it says, "Among his questions?" Do you see that?

A. Yes.

Q. Do you see it says, "In closing Jones says..."?

A. I believe that’s where I’m saying I think Sandy Hook happened.

Q. Right. What I’m asking you is: When it’s talking "his questions," that’s Zero Hedge reporting on your questions. And when it says, "In closing Jones says," that’s Zero Hedge reporting on what you said. And now, in some sort of inception, this is you reporting on Zero Hedge reporting on what you said?

A. Can you make it bigger? I can’t read that.
Q. I cannot make that bigger, Mr. Jones; but I’m asking --
THE WITNESS: May I approach it, your Honor?
MR. BANKSTON: You may approach it. Yeah, go ahead.
THE WITNESS: I can’t even see it. My god. There’s no way to blow it up maybe?
MR. BANKSTON: I don’t think I can blow that up.
A. "My heart goes out to the" -- I can’t read it."My heart goes out to the parents of lost children."

quote:

Q. So we can agree that in 2017, when you raised the question, "Why were no paramedics let in the building," you either did know what Sergeant Carrio did or you didn’t know what Sergeant Carrio did. One of those two things has to be true, obviously, right?

A. The tape was so edited, I don’t remember.

They were reading a police report. Not a tape. A report that they took a break to allow Jones to read.
This was right before the above:

quote:

Q. I have put in front of you Exhibit 2, the statement of Lieutenant Vanghele, correct? You’ve had a chance to read that?
Let’s go to page 5. Do you see the highlighted portion?
A. Yes.
Q. I’m going to read that, and you’re going to follow along with me. Okay?

And then right back to the "I was just reporting the stuff that others were reporting no I can't remember who it was so long ago."

quote:

Q. (BY MR. BANKSTON) You’re not going to dispute with me that you’ve repeatedly said on your television show -- or your web broadcast that paramedics weren’t allowed in the building; you’ve said that over and over and over, right, Mr. Jones?
MR. BARNES: Objection as to the form.
Q. (BY MR. BANKSTON) Right?
A. It’s edited the way you -- what you’ve shown me, so I can’t comment.
Q. I’m not talking about what I -- what was on the video. I’m not talking about that. Ignore what you just saw on the video. I’m asking you -- me and youright now -- you’ve said repeatedly on your web show paramedics weren’t allowed inside of Sandy Hook? You’ve said that; you’re not going to deny that?
A. I’ve read other people’s reports saying.
Q. Okay. And you did nothing to confirm those reports, literally nothing?
A. I went out and I covered news that was being covered.

I mean...how do you not recognize that he's not talking like the truth telling hero he presents himself as? How do you not read this and think he's a conman or addled loving 120 year old? How do you see him, repeatedly, whining about how unfair the world is to him and how everything is so strange and confusing and gee willikers why do they print stuff so small nowadays?? and think "strong man"?

Edit: gently caress me last one I promise:

quote:

Q. Thank you, Mr. Jones. I want to talk to you about something you said about Port-A-Potties. You know what I’m talking about when I talk about Port-A-Potties, right?Port-A-Potties showed up to Sandy Hook?
A. Port-A-Potties?
Q. Yeah. Do you know what I’m talking about when I say that allegation, when you talked about on your show Port-A-Potties showing up to Sandy Hook? Do you remember talking about Port-A-Potties?
A. I do remember talking about them.
Q. Okay. And you remember how your point was they showed up within an hour for a big media event,showed that it was clearly -- something’s going on because they showed up way too quick?
...
Q. (BY MR. BANKSTON) If they were, if those videos were released in 2013, it certainly would have been reckless to say the Port-A-Potties arrived in an hour in 2017, wouldn’t it, Mr. Jones?
MR. BARNES: Objection as to form. A. I just don’t know how to respond to the fact that -- that how do we know more weren’t arriving later and that there’s other Port-A-Potties or whatever? I’m not saying that’s what happened. You just showed me one still off something and tell me to answer questions.

Alex Jones made a conspiracy allegation in the middle of being sued for spreading conspiracy allegations.

It’s not hard to disrupt a deposition or offer useless testimony at a deposition, especially if you are someone that takes bullshit for a living

It’s much harder to keep your testimony straight on the stand in front of a jury, while the other side reads your deposition testimony back to you and asks you about it. I think the thing juries might hate the most is you wasting their time, and if did this on the stand I think a jury would turn on him

Not saying I don't want the whole thing released, just I can imagine reasons why they wouldn't want it immediately released that widely. I would be OK in that case with a House committee getting the full thing.

This honestly seems like the sort of thing where it's probably worthwhile to expose sources and methods just to maintain absolute public clarity over every detail.

No. If you put sources at risk you not only lose them you lose other sources that might come forward later.

And it's also totally unnecessary; you can redact the pieces relevant to the intelligence investigation to protect those and still have plenty of "meat" available.
