A bankruptcy judge has rejected The Onion’s bid to buy Alex Jones’ Infowars site, ruling that the auction process was unfair. “I don’t think it’s enough money,” Judge Christopher Lopez said after a two-day hearing. “I’m not going to approve the sale.” It was not immediately clear whether there will be a new auction in which The Onion can participate. Here’s more from @NBCNews.

@[email protected] @NBCNews A judge gets to adjudicate on the result of an open auction? That’s messing with capitalism on a grand scale.
@NBCNews @[email protected] This was a terrible decision by the judge. The families were satisfied, The Onion had a great idea for satirizing misinformation, and Jones would have had to stop broadcasting via Infowars. Now Jones can continue his propaganda indefinitely.
