Filmed over four years with unprecedented access, THE TRUTH VS. ALEX JONES chronicles the riveting courtroom drama of two defamation lawsuits brought by Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting victims' families against Alex Jones and his website, InfoWars. While exploring the scope and ripple effects of Jones' brand of conspiracy-minded media, the film follows the families' legal efforts to hold him accountable for spreading lies about them and their children. The cases culminate in a historic award of nearly $1.5 billion in damages, followed by Jones declaring bankruptcy.

The madness of it, and the knowledge that Jones’s rants are giving a certain rabid demographic exactly what they want, the dizzying sense of unreality and the multiplying questions as you watch.

Dan Reed also made Leaving Neverland (2019)... in both documentaries he’s unflinching, here selecting footage of Alex Jones spitting his invective about the deep state on Texas-based media platform Infowars, owned by his company Free Speech Systems.

Rated: 5/5

This must-see documentary expresses the real danger and destructive power of unchecked conspiracy theories, the money that can be made from exploiting tragedy, and the responsibility we all bear in combating the growing proliferation of fake news.

Heartbreaking at times, with ultimate vindication in the end. Just make sure to take your blood pressure medicine beforehand for some of the in between.

This was a very tough watch dangerous misleading and flat out untrue in some parts, they really do an awful job at displaying who Alex is by just making him out to be literal evil incarnate. Just a terrible counterproductive to society documentary.
