The Onion’s Ben Collins Is Still Trying to Get His Hands on Infowars

Published by Sam Flores

Nevertheless, Collins and The Onion continued their fight. Most recently, they attempted to enter a leasing situation with the far-right media company, where, for $81,000 a month, they would license the infowars.com domain and brand name, as well as any associated intellectual property. After six months, they would have the option to renew the deal. But unfortunately for The Onion, the Texas court system has once again prevented that plan from coming to fruition. If and when they do finally get their hands on Infowars, The Onion won’t waste any time revamping it. “We intend on flipping it over right away,” said Collins. “We got a bunch of bullshit ready to go. It’s really stupid. Everything that we have planned is very, very dumb. So I hope people get excited for that.” Days before the ruling, Collins’s excitement was palpable. “Frankly, the newspaper is doing so well that we need to give them more space to show that off,” he said. “Not every media merger and acquisition has to be the worst news you’ve ever …

BBC bosses reportedly plan to hold Strictly Come Dancing presenter auditions this week.

It’s all about chemistry and who clicks instantly and can keep the energy up live on air. “They could stick with two female hosts as that’s worked brilliantly.

MAGA Divide Deepens on Iran as Trump Blasts His Onetime Allies

Reactions are rolling in to President Donald Trump’s lengthy Truth Social post on Thursday, in which he eviscerated several members of the online MAGA-sphere — again roasting Tucker Carlson and Megyn Kelly, while going after Candace Owens in an even-for-him personal manner and mocking Alex Jones — all of who have recently emerged as voices of opposition to the war in Iran. Trump’s latest missive follows an Iran-focused war of words with Carlson, the former CNN and Fox News host who now commands a large audience on his namesake daily video podcast. Clocking in at 482 words, the president’s post scorches four of the biggest names in the MAGA-aligned online commentary space. Carlson, after taking repeated hits from the president in the past week, was dubbed a “hand flairrlring Fool”; Kelly was again chastised for a decade-old debate question about Trump’s criticism of women. Rising star Owens was mocked for her conspiracy theory that French first lady Brigitte Macron was born a man — with Trump adding that Owens is less attractive — while Jones …
