Freedom4Me73986, please stop posting links with enormous text.  It is unnecessary, and clutters up the forum.

I tend to think that there is a lot of exaggeration with Alex Jones and infowars.

I need audio of the comment to really consider that kind of thing being said.  It would explain Pauls disappearance from even making a PR statement himself.

The LOST thing is a bummer.  At least they got an apt acronym for it...

Of course I didn't click Freedom4Me73986's link, but I tend to agree with you about Jones.  It's actually kind of frustrating, because he's basically the only one (at least that people have a chance of hearing, anyway) that talks about a lot of this stuff.

And it's a hard enough battle when you're going against the mainstream, and even harder when you're dealing in conspiracy theories...and this guy has to go and mess up the one major thing that is in his control...integrity.

I'm not saying he makes things up out of nowhere, but like you said, it's exaggeration.  To beyond an unacceptible level in my opinion.  He'll talk about something true and throw in sidebar details, or slanted commentary on the nature of the situation...that often times has no real evidence to back it up, but nonetheless gets said and easily distorts the view of the picture and can mislead a listener.  It opens him up to ridicule and discrediting that he can't afford.

I think he does a lot to hurt himself.  At least in terms of getting through to more people.  Of course the followers he already has are basically drones ready to go along with (and post) anything.
