Imagine being The Onion, blowing millions to take over Infowars, believing you somehow now own the magic that Alex Jones created, and immediately step on a rake on your first episode, and bombing utterly? Why not shell out a few extra bucks to get someone to write some jokes, at the very least? Heidecker’s impersonation of Alex is so bad it gives me second-hand embarrassment from my living room couch. The great irony here is that Jones and Smith are far funnier than Heidecker could ever be, and they’re not even comedians. They’re effective journalists, and their commentary on various bonkers stories is funny naturally. Heidecker comes off as, well, strange. As someone who shouldn’t be filming his performances at all. What is hilarious is that, after years of drama surrounding the relentless persecution of Alex Jones and Infowars, the end result is…this pathetic display from The Onion? It’s poetic, bordering on Shakespearian. It’s crystal clear to everyone now that Alex Jones IS Infowars. The Onion bought a husk, from which the sould long ascended. He now operates and thrives at AlexJonesLive, along with Harrison and Co., where they’ll make a fortune on supplements and merch. Time Heidecker’s Infowars will probably go belly up within the year. Hilarious.
