The Spin

Left narrative

The Onion has a chance to take this dangerous website and turn it into something nice by transforming Jones' old platform of harmful conspiracy theories into a hub of satire and truth-telling humor. By replacing Jones' damaging lies with sharp, impactful wit, The Onion will ensure that disinformation no longer profits off tragedy.

Right narrative

Regardless of anyone's opinion of Jones, he deserves the same due process as anyone else. The people behind this lawsuit are from an anti-gun rights organization, and they're using The Onion as a front to push their political agenda. Since the "winning parties" knew they would lose the auction, they made an illegal backroom deal with the government to ensure their bid would win.
