As questions swirl about his credibility, former Trump campaign adviser Roger Stone settled a defamation suit seeking $100 million in damages on Monday for publishing false and misleading statements on InfoWars.com, a far-right website known for promoting conspiracy theories.

The agreement requires Mr. Stone to run ads in national newspapers, including The Wall Street Journal, apologizing for making defamatory statements about a Chinese businessman who is a vocal critic of Beijing.

I thought it was a far-left website?  Aren't these the same folks who said that the WTC and Pentagon attacks were an inside job?

Nothing new here, I've never been able to see how he could write a book and blame LBJ for this. Nevermind that a lot of people do in fact blame LBJ but I think it's a bogus charge and to put it into print?

Info Wars use to be labelled conspiracy, now it seems to be labeled as right-wing, alt-right, whatever you have.  I've still seen some decent interviews on it.
