Tim Heidecker, known for his impersonations of Alex Jones, has expressed his desire to remove him from Infowars, the extremist media outfit founded by Jones. The satirical news site The Onion has agreed to take over Infowar, intending to reshape it as a comedic outfit with Heideck at its creative helm. The deal, pending judicial approval, involves a monthly licensing fee paid to the court-appointed manager of Infowellars under the settlement reached with the Sandy Hook families. The Onion's CEO, Ben Collins, stated that the takeover was part of a two-year effort to get justice for the Sandy Newtown families, and that he hopes to use this as a platform for making light on Jones' negative legacy. He also discussed his partnership with The Onion and the potential for Jones to be removed from the site.
