Background

Alex Jones is originally from Rockwall, Texas. It was here that he began his career with a live call-in format cable access television program. It was with this program that his political views began to take centre stage. Jones, with this program, made accusations against: the United Nations, the United States federal government, secret societies, and multinational corporations. Eventually, this program allowed him to produce a similar, nationally syndicated radio show. This radio show is broadcasting via Internet radio through the Genesis Communications Network. Jones continues to broadcast his show, "InfoWars," on public access television in Austin, Texas.

Political viewpoint

As noted before, Jones is a firm advocate of the belief that many world governments are involved in an attempt to create a single world government. Not only are many world governments involved in this supposed conspiracy, but some major corporations too. According to Jones, these various governments and corporations are in collaboration to create a New World Order, a single world government. This New World Order, according to him, would be a secretive cabal of powerful figures working to abolish all civil liberties in order to enslave the rest of humanity for their own selfish benefit.

Criticism

Thomas Richards of SpirituallySmart.com accuses Alex Jones of spreading false information and of being part of Operation MOCKINGBIRD.

I believe [Alex Jones] is working hand in hand with the Vatican and the CIA via Alternative Media Manipulation, similar to Project mockingbird and their MKultra.[1]

One of Richards' main topics is that he considers that Jones tries to hide the Vatican's role in the New World Order.

-Jones includes the Vatican as one of MANY having a role in the NWO, not as the lone-gunmen. Each point which Jones talks about should be examined individually and criticized as such. People like Richards either have a personal axe to grind, or work for a group with an agenda. The 'false information' mentioned by Richards is entirely referenced from real sources and puts Richards in the aforementioned categories.
