  1. It is impossible to understand how this
    jury could have come up with such a
    small amount. This does not reflect
    the anguish and pain Jones has caused
    these grieving families. This is so wrong.

  2. The world as it should be is defined by the cosmic order, the liberal worldorder is in contradiction to that, and the admit it. The amount of money, those poor parents demanded tells a lot about their character, aside from being victims. The press is very problematic, if you don`t consider that tendentious media was already used in Rome. Everybody knows, that the press doesn`t tell the full truth! And if they even say, they are about conspiracy theory, they connot get blamed! ItΒ΄s just a power struggle, don`t act so naive, it sounds stupid.

  3. He's withdrawn tens of millions of dollars from his business over the last few years. He can easily afford this. After paying it, he'll be back at it, lying to fools and grifting them of their money.

  4. "Will the Jewish people love a 45 year old, catholic, polish women as their Jewish Messiah" That's how I already revealed myself back in October. My name is MAGDALENA this time. If that's not enough proof that JESUS was a Messiah then there is another one. Everything God showed me and told me happened outside. GOD IS NOT INSIDE THE CHURCHES AND HE IS BEHIND THE PRESIDENT TRUMP A100 PERCENT. TIME FOR CHANGE IN AMERICA IS NOWπŸ˜₯πŸ˜₯πŸ˜₯πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ•ŠπŸ•ŠπŸ•Š

  5. Excellent. So how much will ABC and all MSM going to pay for Trump for lying about the DNC claims of collusion with Russian. I can’t wait to see CNN go under when they need to pay Trump 500 mil for all their lies.

  6. He should have to pay so much that his royalties get garnished.

  7. Blimey, the female presenter looks like the judge's twin! πŸ˜„

  8. Alex won, he broke the internet this week.

  9. Hey winston….how many fingers am i holding up..????

  10. 😑😑😑WHAT THE MEDIA IS NOT TALKING ABOUT AND HIDING FROM YOU😑😑😑 πŸ‘‰πŸΎ https://youtu.be/H0YhwBJRreU?t=54

  11. Alex will make that back in one week. You liberals lose again

  12. I hope these jurors that have to write a dollar amount. Will never have a loved one taken away by a grossly incompetent individual or by his actions, and profit from it as well.

  13. The jury awarded a lot less than a 150 million, but it's still going to put a much deserved twist in Jones' knickers.

  14. "What's bifurcated?"
    Never answers the question. That's a solid guest. πŸ‘

  15. Jones is laughing at America. Jones can't believe how weak and impotent this country is. Four stinking million is NOTHING! It's a joke – just like America. He's having a party as he humiliates and degrades all of us.

  16. Importantly the defamation is of a mass murdered classroom of children in school and their teachers .
    It would be delightful if the abc employee was better educated. Dumping the goofy soundings affectations to her vocalizing and sufficient pre broadcasting education so mis information was not her content.

  17. If alex is smart he would buy gold hide that in some hole πŸ•³ then file complete bankruptcy.

  18. Maybe what's needed is illustrations . Recall Free Public Education is to prepare k-12 for Civic Duty entering adult age.
    Free press likewise so the vast population of adults as well is honestly informed.
    Rather than " plain English" excellent opportunity to fully inform using those adult Civic terminology.

  19. The whole thing was a sham! The liberals have destroyed our justice system! This whole case goes against our first amendment rights! Way to go guys you're all a bunch of traitors to your country and your own freedom! You must be so proud of yourselves!

  20. Someone tell me what is the difference between Alex Jones, an individual defamation case and Nick sandman defamation case against main stream media.

  21. He made money out their suffering by creating more lies against them and the punitive is just $4 mil??? C'mon.

  22. This is an outrage. This is a mockery on the sandy hook victims!!! I mean, Johnny Depp received more than that amount simply because his ex wife damaged his reputation and hurt his feelings. I will not be surprised if the people will go out and protest. Totally stupid, no regard to the victim’s suffering!

  23. LIES LIES LIES Microsoft Bill Gates + NBC = pathological lies. You cant even lie with a straight face. Worst victim goughing case I have seen. Load of crap. and i am a victims advocate. Left wing conspiracy MSNBC has been found guilty of lying to the public for 40+ years – Matt Lauer?

  24. These are just the actual damages, tomorrow they're gonna discuss punitive damages. Where the big money comes into play

  25. That is just a shockingly low figure, especially when you compare their pain and suffering to the amount of money Mr Jones has made from peddling his lies. This kind of crime always seems to pay well in America, Alex only has to pay 4.1m but has made over 100m off the back of all those children. Those poor parents did not get the justice they and their children deserved.

  26. They don't deserve it

  27. 4 millions is nothing for him he made a whole bunch of millions out of all the lies the judge should have awarded the 150 millions

  28. This monster doesn't need lawyers…he needs a psychiatrist and a lobotomy.

  29. Verdict doesn't match the lies. Should have been 150 million Γ—2, plus a billion
