Several people wrote to me about Alex Jones: never heard of him before I received a link. I asked my source and she did not know who he was. Robert wrote to me this about him:

I saw that you used Alex Jones as a source today, which I have to say
dismays me. I would strongly caution against considering him a trustworthy source of any information on any subject whatsoever. He has an almost cult-like
following amongst a small group of people that take every word he says as gold.
My ex-neighbor was one of them and used to try to get me to sit down in front of
Alex Jones' "documentaries." I did for about half an hour. It was reactionary
tripe: Missile hit the Pentagon, not a plane; Bilderberger
group/Illuminati controls all politics in the world; very anti-Semitic overtones

two); promotion of dubious nutritional supplements; etc. It was very clear to me
that he was willing to fabricate whatever he wished in order to build his cult
status and further his reactionary agenda. So, I can't say whether this report
about the hospital is true or not (it certainly seems quite possible), but Alex
Jones is not someone you should be citing.
After I wrote the above, I went to his website. He appears to have toned
