Las Vegas Massacre Gives InfoWars More Conspiracy Fodder<br />Mr. Jones — who has propagated conspiracy theories about the Sandy Hook Elementary School massacre in 2012<br />and the Sept. 11, 2001, terror attacks — has portrayed Mr. Paddock by turns as an agent of the Islamic State, a leftist activist, an anti-Trump radical and a possible stooge for a broader conspiracy intent on disrupting democracy.<br />After the gun massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn., Mr. Jones repeatedly asserted<br />that the episode was “completely fake,” prompting some listeners to harass grieving parents of victims.<br />That absence of information has provided an opening for right-wing media personalities like Alex Jones of InfoWars to proffer their own theories.<br />“Clearly, there’s more than one shooter,” Mr. Jones said on his Friday radio show,<br />citing high-ranking law enforcement officials whom he declined to name.<br />“They said there’s no way he acted alone,” Mr. Jones added.
