The Truth vs. Alex Jones
On December 14, 2012, twenty children and six adults were killed in a tragic shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut. That same day, Alex Jones began raising questions about the veracity of the attack. Directed by award-winning filmmaker Dan Reed (HBO’s Four Hours at the Capitol), The Truth vs. Alex Jones chronicles the riveting courtroom drama of two defamation lawsuits brought by victims’ families against Jones and his website, InfoWars. With unprecedented access, the film explores the scope and ripple effects of conspiracy-minded media as it tracks the families’ battle for truth and accountability following years of painful myths about the tragedy disseminated by Jones and his followers.
