Why Alex Jones secretly recorded Megyn Kelly interview
NY Post ^ | June 16, 2017 | Chris Perez

Posted on 06/16/2017 7:00:26 AM PDT by COUNTrecount

Alex Jones released audio on Thursday night of his entire interview with Megyn Kelly — saying he secretly recorded the controversial sit-down because he “knew it was all crap.”

The Infowars host posted a video online, along with a teaser clip, around 8:45 p.m. and claimed he would be posting the full tape on the conspiracy website later in the evening.

“I’ve never done this in 22 years, I’ve never recorded another journalist, but I knew it was a fraud, that it was a lie,” Jones said in the video, recalling how Kelly approached him about the interview.

“God, she was like, ‘I want to get steaks with you, I’m obsessed with you, oh my God,’ wiggling around in her seat. It was all crap,” he explained. “I knew it was all a lie. I said Sandy Hook happened, and she wouldn’t even put it in the promo pieces. So we’re going to release, oh yeah, we’re going to release the pre-interview. And then when they put their fraud out on Sunday — which I’ve asked them not to air because they’re misrepresenting who I am and saying I’m as bad as Saddam Hussein, or Jeffrey Dahmer, or Charles Manson — we’ve got the whole interviews here … We’ve got it all … It’s all going to come out.”

The clip that accompanied Jones’ tweet featured a short audio recording of Kelly, seemingly assuring the 43-year-old that her questions wouldn’t be tough.

“All I can do is give you my word and I don’t double-cross,” she can be heard saying at one point.

He will be sued, unless it was in a state were you can record a conversation with out the consent of all parties.

Since the whole purpose of the interview by Kelly (party A)was to record it, and Jones (party B) was aware that it was being recorded, the ONLY contention can be WHO did the recording. Does the law specify whether party A or B is the ONLY party allowed to make the recording?

Well yeah.

But no one is saying Alex Jones filmed her under her dress. Now that would be interesting if he did.

Agreed.

Megyn Kelly completely overhauls Alex Jones interview

http://pagesix.com/2017/06/15/megyn-kelly-interview-completely-overhauled-after-backlash/

Megyn Kelly has completely overhauled her Sunday night show featuring Alex Jones, inviting Sandy Hook families on the program and editing her interview with Jones to be tougher on him, following all the backlash this week.

NBC News execs were scrambling following the furor over Kelly’s decision to give a platform to the controversial Infowars host, who claimed the Sandy Hook massacre was a hoax.

A contrite Kelly personally called the Sandy Hook families, we’re told, to invite them on the show to counter Jones’ rhetoric.

A source told us, “NBC was scrambling to find a way out of this mess without having to back down and cancel Sunday’s episode of Megyn’s show. Megyn and her producers made numerous calls to the Sandy Hook families this week to ask them to appear on the show. Some refused because they didn’t think appearing on her show would do enough to counter Alex Jones’ venom.”

Another source added, “Everyone on the show believes it’s vitally important that the piece conveys the immense pain that Jones has caused the Sandy Hook families.” The source added it was normal to be editing right up until airtime.

I saw Norville speak once, live at a convention. First thing I noticed as she came onstage was she was wearing two unmatched shoes. I was fascinated by her whole story as I had not followed it, and she did make part of her speech about the unmatched shoes!

I wouldn’t give anyone in the media national or local the time of day without a recorder running. Same thing goes for any contact with a US government employee: IRS, FBI, ATF etc... They have shown too many times they out right lie and just make crap up as they go. Policies, guidelines and the law means nothing to bureaucrats the unaccountable, unelected, self-appointed rulers in government.

He was smart to do this. They (maybe 60 Minutes?) made Sean Hannity look terrible when they cherry picked his interview.

She got the big gig and the “girls” didn’t like being passed over. I believe it was Katie Couric who ended up in the slot. I admire the heck out of Norville. She was trashed brutally. So, she walked away from “news” and never looked back. And she’s still gorgeous.

Yep.

Basically, you are totally untrustworthy. I will not even speak with you without recording it, furthermore I will not be in a room with you without a 3rd party witness.

Kelley got orders to do a hit piece on Jones because his audience numbers are getting into the red zone for the Bilderberg elite he’s declared war on.

And Alex knows them better than they know themselves. They really are no where near as smart as they think they are. Wisdom and intelligence are not for sale on Amazon.

Kelley doesn’t seem to be too successful at hit pieces on smarter, more capable males.

>>And Alex knows them better than they know themselves. They really are no where near as smart as they think they are. Wisdom and intelligence are not for sale on Amazon.

Their thinking is short term- tactical because they are under threat. Under threat by the Internet and its anti-hierarchical lateral information lattice. They can’t keep the genii as to their methods, control nodes and fascist agendas hidden behind various idealisms, in the bottle any longer and are in a blind panic, thinking they can flimflam the entire left of center panorama into doing their bidding and instituting a one world government which they will usurp like the Nazi’s usurped the Weimar Republic.

The Internet is revealing all this, reaching levels that can go critical and result in unacceptable results among voting demographics such as Brexit and Trump and Duterte and other name worthy traditional Lincolnsonian republicans The peasants are growing less ignorant and superstitious. The oligarchs’ ace in the hole is WWIII, which they’ve tried several times in the past 5 years to initiate. Their desperation will not play well against the new media background. They are making mistakes and working stop gap kludges, as their globalist game plan begins skipping into the atmosphere at warp speed.

Her approach to Jones was obvious, naive and patronizing. Any conspiracy researcher worth his paranoia is going take measures. These egomanaical press lackeys really are consummate airheads if they haven’t investigated some of the data that Jones and his crew are turning up. Alex steps on his crank from time to time but the core of his research is rock solid and could have emanated from the mouth of John Birch himself. Watch this video:

All good points. WWIII will be difficult with Trump in charge. 9/11 is right around the corner however. The original occurred in an atmosphere of selected not elected. Our FBI is also pretty much neutered right now and activist judges want more unvetted immigrants.
