Ask Jones about organised religion, the founding fathers, Knights Templar, the Vatican and UFOs - silences.

Alex Jones may have gone about this is a questionable way, but dammit, he is out there spreading the truth to more people than 90% of us could ever hope to reach. Is he right all the time? NO. Is he the most credible source? NO. But he is doing it, he is fighting, and that is ALL that freaking matters people.
(...)
This isn't a signal to stop fighting. This isn't the 'end' of the truth movement, and this certainly isn't going to effect our credibility at all? WHY? Because our credibility isn't based on fantasy and storytelling, or making things up as they come, it is based on cold, hard, facts - something that the populace will one day be unable to deny.
That is all I have to say. Have fun destroying one of the very few rally points that people like us have.

Cooper did check his facts, he didn't rely on something being published in a mainstream source to present it as "documented".

Totally agree. Jones, IMO, is just there to babysit those who question the governments story and keep otherwise sane people lumped into the lunatic fringe. I believe they keep pushing the most outrageous theories, about explosives, missiles, and holograms to drown out those who feel the government played a less direct role by intentionally allowing 9/11 to happen, despite several warnings that something was going down, one of the most direct coming from an FBI agent here in Phoenix. This is just another stunt to discredit himself, and anybody who questions the governments role.

I'm not sure how that makes sense? Please expound.
Peace

Jones claims his show is "100% documented" but in effect he routinely presents as facts what has merely been published in a respected news media.
That's not fact-checking. And worse, that's implying that what the mainstream media and the official sources publish is factual and credible.
Also, it is a parasitic role whereas his should be a producing role : he should produce information not exploit the news of others....
