Author Jon Ronson {Via-Webcam} on Alex Jones Tv 4/4:The Men Who Stare at Goats

[roryphelan]

Jon Ronson is such a lovely guy. I really recommend his last book 'The Psychopath Test'.

I don't read much and I found it to be an easy and informative read. And funny at times too.

[songdiver]

People who are brainwashed thoroughly haven't the slightest clue because the conditioning works so well. It's like when a religious person can't even question their faith due to the fear of hell programmed into them since birth. It works the same with the government and society as a whole...this applies to many of you. You are so indoctrinated that you can't think from an outside perspective or question anything...always "begging the question" by using the institution as your only source.

[twosquirrelly]

@songdiver

You're brainwashed as well. Why? You didn't include the Plutocratic Corporate Aristocracy who have hijacked our govt for their own gains. This is nothing new, the "monied aristocracy" as T Jefferson called them, have no love or respect for a democracy, their only allegiance is to profit. At least the govt has the POTENTIAL to work on behalf of the people. In a perfect world, the govt would act as a check & balance to the abuses of corporate power.

[twosquirrelly]

Haha at AJ saying he never hypes any conspiracy theories.

I remember him going on on on about Y2K and how everyone needed to stock up on food and water supplies, etc etc.

And of course he was running commercials for survival supplies while he was spewing this bull shit.

Glenn Beck and Alex Jones = Fear mongering little shits.

[watercup123456]

@twosquirrelly In part 3 aj was saying how a carbon tax would usher in a new world order.

It's 2011. Where's the tax?

There's no carbon tax in the usa, or pretty much any other industrialized nation. If such a government does have a cap and trade or carbon tax, it is incredibly small and insignificant and only affects huge corporations that operate in that country.

The only difference between alex jones and glenn beck is jones still has a show somehow :-D

[anonymoustruther2]

I think... I think... I believe.... wtf is this shit?!

This interview was a COMPLETE waste of time.

I want my 40 minutes back.

I may not agree with AJ on everything, but dam this is a fucking joke.

Like the PS4 says.... Since when ignorance became a point of view?

[anonymoustruther2]

This interview was a COMPLETE waste of time.

[anonymoustruther2]

Like the PS4 says.... Since when ignorance became a point of view?

[Jesusizjdoe]

INTERESTING :- both seem to be missing the point a little:- that being:- that it's not if people did or didn't conspire it's who and for what?!

Take 911/- I'm sure jon and alex could agree that there was a CONSPIRICY:/ after that you look into the evidence for who did it and for what motive! The evidence points to a controled demolition So who could have done that? Ect ect..

[benthejrporter]

Good interview, Alex. You showed Ronson's fallacies up for all they are.

[Seano71]

Man Alex Jones is such a fruitcake. He doesn't even know what he's talking about. Maybe its because he doesn't know how to shut up, listen and learn

[whitefaceclown]

Does AJ really need to shout???? It's ridiculous

[blatspanner]

alex jones is an expert at getting the wrong end of the stick. he's a genuine character.

[zootsoot2006]

If you read the FT article you'll see that the writer does not advocate a tyrannical world government. What he says is that he would like some sort of world government but because international governance is only effective if it's anti-democratic it's not going to come about any time soon, which he's glad of. So the opposite of what Jones claims. An example then of Jones' distortion of information, dangerously ironic when he claims he's bypassing such distortion. Keep a wide berth of this guy!

[ScottishAtheist]

Funny interview. Ronson is like an anchor that stops Alex flying into his fantasy world every five minutes.

[wordy81]

ha you gotta love alex, jon ronson is a poor excuse of a british man. I could do his job better.

[Casseyvanaukeni]

best movie of the year! best mov ie ever!!!! finally no more downloadin mov.ees just awesome flicks Fre.e MovieWizard dot C O M

[danisageeza]

1 - 0 to Alex. Ronson is in denial or scared, he tried at every turn to dodge the question of a deeper conspiracy. From what I saw, he seemed in conflict with what he thought and what was coming out of his mouth. It just seems a waste of good journalistic talent, but I guess hes just covering his ass. He is a sell out mate. I don't always agree with Alex, but at least he says what he sees.

[thespacialone]

John C Reilly doing one of his excellent stooges might work

[TheLoonwolf]

John Goodman as Alex Jones

[twhichy]

tweet? wtf?

[mrcell61]

What a FUN interveiw. A breath of fresh air on Alex Jones. I needed this one.

[OzzyPatriot]

So Jon Ronson and Benjamin Fullford have this insane, stroking their heads thing in common. I can see B F is insane. I see J R is a bullshiter.

[Darkgravx12]

@

ma049

Oh yes, it is impossible for the government leaders of every country in the world to be manipulated into doing what small group of elitists want them to. Oh yeah, nobody takes bribes either. Oh, leaders don't lie too. ma049 U R the only silly one here.

[abstractduk]

jon ronson doesnt want to upset his Rothchilds masters. he is such a cheap whore journalist tramp!

[Bjarku]

yeah because everyone who simply can't bring themselves to believe in a new world order is in the pay of the rothchilds right? just like anyone who cant bring themselves to believe in jesus is a satanist

[abstractduk]

that is a ridiculous comparison youre making. havnt youheard enough world leaders calling for a one world government?

[abstractduk]

just so happens that ronson works and is financed by those who are promoting a one world government so youre asuming that he is blind to it or what?

[Bjarku]

...conspiracies dont work like that you stupid dickhead. only the people at the top of the pyramid know what is going on. i bet you think that newscasters working for the BBC are all globalists too dont you?

[abstractduk]

sir evelyn de rothschild being one of bbc top directors you mean?

why is it only idiots want to argue all the time?

[Bjarku]

you are so fucking thick its unbelievable. just because one of the heads of a company is a globalist does not mean to say that everyone who works for that company is a globalist. BBC newscasters are just doing a job, they largely havent even ever heard of the phrase "new world order". fuckheads like you are the reason people ridicule conspiracy theorists

[abstractduk]

look. im no conspiracy theorist. the news i read-the dots i connect are factual real life documents or events. my 'theories' are much more wild. i dont know what point youre trying to make or who you feel so passionately obliged to defend but i can tell you FOR-A-FACT that Ronson is a jew who is supported and financed by the same people who finance mis-media, wars, eugenics programs and the financial monopolies. you my friend are a complete muppet fraud so quit arguing with me.

[Bjarku]

aaah there we go. its because he's jewish. why didnt you just say right from the start that you're a racist fucking moron?

i receive benefits from my government. the government are globalists. does that make me a globalist? no.

for some strange reason you seem to believe that if you receive money from someone you share their exact beliefs and worldview.

[abstractduk]

ok, i just mention it because you have to watch Ronson following David Icke around with the ADL following him along to every gig and signing..and Ronson never mentions the fact that he is jewish. watch yourself and tell me there is no loyalty or bias. ..are you telling me that you think by recognising someone to be a jew is the same as calling a white person a honky? i pay road tax and i wouldnt call myself a globalist. clearly you have deprived an ant and stolen its brain.

[Chortleclips]

World government, we are all prisoners, blah blah. Is there really a point in constantly moaning about it and never taking action? People with solutions are what matter, people who take action. Conspiracy theorists never fall into that category. Conspiracy theorists hold seminars and talk shows, pocket the money and laugh all the way to the bank. A world government would matter very little because as long as you are part of the financial system you are already a slave. You always have a choice.

[BankScamTakeover]

I remember my friends saying how Ron was genuine. I'm going to show them this video.

[AttractionInAction]

I love Alex. He totally exposes this guy for the idiot that he is and then invites him back on the show with compliments. It's too bad Alex works three times as hard as these people but gets half their glory and wealth... but he knows his rewards are waiting for him in heaven.

[woggyandkiller]

jon ronson you got destroyed by alex u r shit man !! u must be embarressed u ra cock!!and your film is shit

[ma049]

Ronson was promoting his film, Alex helped him do that.

He sensibly did not get drawn into details because frankly people like Alex are professional BS peddlers who sit in the bunker 24/7 finding evidence to back a conclusion they have already arrived at.

Ronson didn't argue, in the same way that I didn't argue with my 4 year old nephew when he said he was going to swin to India on an Elephant.

If there is such a compelling case for a 911 inside job then launch a civil suit.

[woggyandkiller]

get lost

[BankScamTakeover]

Hahaha, yeah right. Like the government is going to investigate itself fairly.

[ma049]

Ahh yes the "Government", that monolithic single minded entity that co-ordinates all its actions with perfect clandestine efficacy (apart from the hundreds of leaks).

What do you mean by "Government"? The Senate, House of Reps, the Presidency, the civil service, The supreme court, the Judiciary? Do you include the Judicary, legislative houses and civil service of all 50 states legislators? Plus all city government, mayoral offices + counties?

An improbably large conspiracy. U R silly.

[RonPaulOrDie]

lol

[glazinq]

It's funny how mainstream lefties like Jon Ronson, Michael Moore, Noam Chomsky et al will go so far but always baulk at addressing 9/11. It's like they have a mental brick wall that stops them even peeking at what might be there. It's extremely frustrating and very disappointing.

[worcesteradam83]

Jon Ronson called conspiracy theorists mentally ill, yet he still hangs around us and makes money of us? He also said there was nothing unusual about Bohemian Grove, thats an insight into his journalism skills

[Demov12]

Yeah thats true.Saying that Bohemian grove had nothing to do with satanism really showed me how much of a good journalist he his.

The 15 foot owl...if he did research what the owl was about he would of known it tells u allot about what these control freaks are all about.

The things they were saying there like the Crimnation of care says allot also.

Obviously its a ritual that helps them stop caring about others that they trample on to make there money.

Hurt who they have 2.

Kill who they have 2.

[worcesteradam83]

yes

but whether there was an owl or not, running around the redwood forests at night dressed in klu klux klan outfits doing mock sacrifices, owl or no owl, is not something regular christians do.

I think christian voters would be interested in hearing about that. Anyone sane would.

Ronson doesnt

[Vinseneb]

Jon doesn't want to upset his mummy and Daddy.

[virgy45]

Funny, I thought I was would be the only one who didn't like this creep, but turns out, EVERYBODY hates him. So naive, thinking the "journalists" would cover 9-11 "if there were anything to cover/" Duh, REAL ones do. What has HE done that is so relevant? But what does he care? He's "in" with Hollywood. That unfunny comedian who came on just to mock Alex last week was just as bad. I'd rather hear from callers. I hate to complain about the show, because I LOVE it, but this was truly bad

[MAGNETGRUNT]

Ronson can't tell us about his 'NEW' book cause he hasn't finished ripping it off yet........ Absolutely no foundation for my statement except that ..... I'm just dismayed at Ronson's naivity along with feeliing a bit mean today :) Still think he's a real dumbass.

[MAGNETGRUNT]

I think that maybe Alex brought this guy Ronson onto the show in order to expose him for the dumbass that he is and show that 'his book' as he calls it may not actually be his own work.

[matsutakneatche]

i agree, i was listening to this at work today, so angry at that twirp, then i realized he ended up looking so ignorant, little yuppy puke laughing at tyranny.

[UndefeatedArmy09]

Why did Alex bring this douche on his show to help plug his book.Hes in bed with the globalists or else just a sheep.Either way fuck him.

[CearaQC]

Ronson needs to go through Robert Monroe's "Gateway" program to learn for himself whether any of that stuff he doubts is real. No amount of reading books or talking to people will convince anyone. First hand experience is the key.

[wedrinkmountaindew]

The mainstream media is full of talentless freeloading, see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil, spineless cowards like Jon Ronson

[MetalHeadViking]

Jon Ronson just has to do more homework.

He just dosen`t understand the mindset of the Illuminati. He has to go further back, way back long long long before Bilderberg.

[Chriscom28]

I found a book by George Monbiot of the same title, but so far I can't find the article.

[ClonedTyranny]

How about this, murder or career suicide for any mainstream reporter who even ?'s the official 9/11 story. This guy is naive or in denial, or just an A-hole.

[jonathanburr89]

In the words of Jethro Tull To John Ronson Your Thick As A Brick!

I wouldnt bother seeing his movie with his view

[whhyyyyyyyyyy]

get JB for the next movie it will attract the intelectual youth

[beardfreak1969]

Wriggly Ronson,

Mainstream media weezle,

Shrewdly protecting his career.

[jonathanburr89]

hes an ass

[dekionplexis]

Ronson's lack of knowledge or even interest is irritating.

[arcanekrusader]

The press is very very constrained with regard to investigative journalism due to financial constraints. Most news is recycled stuff that comes down the wire.

The organizations which buy advertising in the press have a lot of sway in what does and doesn't get published. I don't know if this sway is directly imposed or is self imposed by the press or a combination of both.

[onemindonespirit]

That's the problem Alex, your guest is not interested with things like "truth" and "evidence".

[wattsun]

I like when Alex has guests thta may not agree 100% with him but they can still have a civil discussion.

[mads18]

yeah, it just requires two thing:

1) Alex Jones respect for Person, usually affected much by #2.

2) the Person not interrupting too much, having a pleasent tone, and trying to meet Alex where he is, instead of saying "NOOO, YOU WROONG!".

I really really don't like Alex Jones' shows actually, too much screaming (my ears actually hurts and I have to put down the volume), even though I don't mind the guy of course! but in this show, I actually prefered Jones over Ronson.

[mads18]

as I do find Ronson sort of denying a bunch of evidence.. from "the top of my head" though, and not in-detail conflicting evidence, but that I remember this usually being the case; the conspiracy theories usually over-exaggurate and have usually out of context evidence, but so does Ron in this case, saying that the government "does not behave like this" and insinuating that this was only in the 50's - no, that's completely false and a very poor insinuation (against all evidence)

[maxxxem1]

ya he must have a hole in his head.. and believe's the world still lives in kansas

[vrossino46]

this ron guy is clueless

[hugegiantfrogs]

I too like Jon Ronson, but I can't stand his lack of inquisitiveness. He presumes to know the human condition, but resists information that is inconsistent with his world view. To me that is rather shortsighted.

[NOHANDBILLS]

@hugegiantfrogs theres only so much you can say to a man who spouts piles and piles of steaming misinformation at you in an argument. You can't debate information that isnt true without having done piles of counter research

[Olafandlafandlaf]

I love Jon Ronson but totally agree with inquisition11, John just isn't drawn to the 'conspiracy' ideas.

And, regarding his comment about 9/11 and pulitzer, what about OPERATION GLADIO? That was a secret for decades and was only revealed by the Italy President. No journalist got anywhere near it. So no way it could be revealed by a jouranlist

In saying that there is a good book on it by Danelie Gasner - NATO'S Secret Armies.

[INQUISITION11]

I like Ronson it was his documentary's shown in England ''Secret rulers of the world ''which changed my world view.However he seems out of his depth with AJ he's pretty nervous.He's very liberal and tries to see the best in people which is his strength and weakness he shows people in his documentaries in a non judgemental way but he is also very naive.

[GreatestVidsEver]

I think you summed it up.

[depletable]

Jon Ronson makes a gay argument, "so you're saying we journalists are all apart of it the 9/11 conspiracy?"

No, you and the rest who still have jobs are just pussies - too scared to get into the research, blind non-believers, don't give a shit, or yes - are apart of it. There are a shitload of reasons why all the journalists that could get to the masses fucking can't.

[skullgymequipment]

FREE THE BRITISH...

[jayson1978]

Im sure now jon must be aware that he is a shill...

interesting many shills dont need to be recruited as such they just hold a perspective that reflects the hymn sheet of the elites and stick with it... and like magic the finance takes care of itself!

[jayson1978]

wonder why jon wins all the awards and gets so much spotlight?

lol.

[jayson1978]

bty

dont buy the book... lend it from the library!

[jayson1978]

common jon!

[SouthFacedWindows]

Ronson is fraud.

[VyseLegend]

Ronson is a fool for thinking journalists would openly report if 9/11 was an inside job.

[tranceman14]

Ronson doesn't know jack about jack.

[vacinestoxic]

Jon Ronson is wearing an intellectual blindfold.

Ignorance and denial of the truth will not help him

when the ---- hits the fan.

[wincentre]

Come on Alex - why waste time with this hypo-sceptic about everything - even the facts that reports were circulating about the Building 7 collapse 20 minutes before it did - the guy is so blind he is not worth listening to....Alex I think you handled him well, but really why would you need to have this kind of distraction on your show when there is so much more relevant and important info to be broadcast and from far more intelligent, well informed and interesting people...

Dr David C

[JimTheMod2009]

Nah Don't like Ronson looks like Gollum doing cold turkey !

[midevalcheese]

For the benifit of the company: NEVER have Jon on again.

He is scum.

[Oz1x]

& i mean no disrespect to anyone with their own opinion of Ronson not believing in the NWO or being thick etc... the fact is he knows exactly whats going on. hes just too well paid by them at the minute so hes a happy puppet. Only thing that aggrevates me is his clever wording trying to subtly refute the facts Alex is throwing at him. Bottom line is hes put there to discredit the truth & im surprised David Icke didnt knock him out at heathrow airport.

[chkdg8]

@Oz1x: "im surprised David Icke didnt knock him out at heathrow airport."

That was the best!!

[ComicPenius]

I knew when I saw Ronson on CNN that he was a shill or at the very least a chickenshit.

[Oz1x]

Mr Ronson has obviously been paid off by the illuminati. Its too apparent by him having to keep repeating his watering down of the events at Bohemian Grove. Not only that. The film they just made on his book is FULL of illuminati symbolism. Ofcourse theyre running full ops using all the paranormal help they can get but like he said Ronson shows the 'Fun' side of it. The dark side would obviously damage the sinister people hes trying to protect. 110% respect to Alex for always standing for truth.

[chopperbana]

Ronson is a shill and most of all thick!!!!

[EBANKSSS]

Ronson does not want to believe that people could be that Evil.

[jmsena]

LOL you gotta bury your head under the sand to get a major motion picture made in hollywood.

[vashguud]

I can't tell if AJ was really throttling this guy or just playing around with him. Jon's head almost exploded from the info upload into his brain.

[BeatsRoyale]

8:09.....great impression!

[ChrisoneillART]

Jon Ronson is sooo blind, and I think he is ok with that......

[1islandcowboy]

Do you think there are subliminals in the movie?

[ChrisoneillART]

Probably, but a guess if it's subliminal we will may never know :)

[guydecervens]

Ronson is the smarmy denier face of the NWO. You should ask him about his relations in Israel and what they are up to if you want a good story or just a long silence. His 'Tweeter' buddy was very fast to supply the false propaganda spin on Monbiots World Government article! But as you point out Alex, Monbiot was not calling for "a world council to solve environmental issues" his 'M15-sully' .... ooops I meant 'Socialist-sully' tweet pal got that wrong. Thanks for pulling this denier on that lie.

[BottleCapsound]

It's called the final solution for the muslim.The Vatican must do things unpopular and in the dark of night to gain geopolitical power and support.

Ask any south Vietnamese if they didn't want us to come and help fight communism ,now I know that doesn't sell dvds, but it's true.The Vatican hates communism.

wake the fuck up people ....The Church has to play chess to finish of the final solution of the muslim.

why is alex supporting the mooj and the muzzie ?

why all the anti american hatred?

[HappyTeacherESQ]

Jon Ronson is dealing with a priori thinking- that is, he can't accept the idea that 9/11 could have been an inside job.

The people he is opposing deal with a posterori thinking- that is, looking at the facts and drawing conclusions.

The problem for Mr. Ronson is, the facts on the ground (insert one of any number) do not square with the 'official story'render the 'official story' ridiculous.

[KamikazeKoscki]

Ft Hood incident and Florida shooting, one for sure was a manchurian candidate to further alienate the US military forces among each other, and demonize the Muslims

[BottleCapsound]

@KamikazeKoscki

fuck you muzzie

[BottleCapsound]

@KamikazeKoscki you like that arab dick don't you ?

laura likes to suck muzzie scum dicks
