For true stories that are so ridiculous, that you could have sworn it was an !theonion worthy story.

If you knew what InfoWars was at all, it would be pretty obvious, you don't need to have watched much (which I didn't, just saw the meme clips). InfoWars was one dude sitting at a desk screaming about conspiracy theories and selling snake oil for hours and hours, that's all it was. The desk was the only other thing on screen besides Alex Jones afaik. There was nothing special about it, but there was also no other part of the office "featured" on the show. Plus it says "InfoWars" in giant letters on it, so that should make for a fun prop for The Onion.

Everything I know about InfoWars I read. Every picture I've seen of Alex Jones is him outside or a closeup of his face.

But I did see the picture of the desk that somebody else posted and I understand now why having it would be a big deal.
