Judge Delays Decision on The Onion's Bid to Acquire Infowars

A federal bankruptcy court will review the auction process and objections in December before deciding the fate of Alex Jones' media company.

The Onion won a bid to purchase Alex Jones' Infowars in a bankruptcy auction but must await a December court hearing for final approval.
The satirical news site plans to transform Infowars into a parody platform targeting conspiracy theorists and internet personalities.
The auction process is under scrutiny, with Jones and the losing bidder, First United American Companies, alleging unfair practices and collusion.
The Onion's bid, valued at $7 million with support from Sandy Hook families, was deemed superior to First United's $3.5 million cash offer by the auction trustee.
Elon Musk's X has filed objections to the sale of Infowars' social media accounts, claiming they are the property of X and cannot be transferred.
