This was a fraudulent publicity stunt, deliberately done. A. Jones is a fraud out for money and web hits and discredits legitimate questions by doing so. The truth is too important for gimmicks and fraudulent games like this.

You missed a very important line at the end of the story:

"Author’s Note: What you have just read didn’t actually happen… yet. "

It's a well written and thought provoking piece, but passing it off as something that actually happened is a bit disingenuous.

That line was added later, and its worse than disingenuous. It was complete misrepresentation and publicity stunt. Alex Jones is a hoaxer and discredits the real controversy. Never clipping again from his site.
