Alex Jones eats crow after Chobani sues [View all]

“You want a fight? You better believe, baby, you’ve got one.”

That was Alex Jones a few weeks ago after Chobani sued Jones, the head of InfoWars and a lunatic par excellence, after his fake-news website accused the yogurt maker of somehow being involved in the sexual assault of a 5-year-old girl last June, among other ridiculous claims about Twin Falls. Jones vowed to “win or die” in his battle against Chobani, and pledged to come to Idaho and dig up evidence to support his claims.

Fast-forward to this week, when Jones said:

“During the week of April 10, 2017, certain statements were made on the InfoWars Twitter feed and YouTube channel regarding Chobani, LLC, that I now understand to be wrong. The tweets and video have now been retracted, and will not be reposted. On behalf of InfoWars, I regret that we mischaracterized Chobani, its employees and the people of Twin Falls, Idaho, the way we did.”

See the difference?
