 Can anyone explain the alex Jones onion thing?

 
 I got this info from bluesky, so take it with a grain of it-might-be-complete-propaganda. But apparently Infowars is bankrupt and the Onion and Sandy Hook families bought it to run it into the ground. 
 They weren’t even the highest bidder apparently either.
There’s issues with the way the auction was held possibly.
AJ said he thinks in a week he’ll have it all back with an emergency court injunction. 
 But yes the onion did win at the auction. 
 Dude also I once had the weirdest dream that you were my upstairs neighbor and I don't know how my brain came up with that shit. 
 infowars was seized in the lawsuit against Alex Jones. Was put up for auction and the Onion won the bid.
