Alex Jones intentionally misread the Texas death rate statistic to exaggerate the severity of the situation.

At the end of the last hour, I put out fake news. And it was an accident, and I apologize. So, there's a number of things that Alex has said so far on this show that desperately need a correction. Okay. One, the complete misrepresentation of the guidelines about PCR tests that Alex made by chopping off the beginning of that All right, I'll give you that one. All right. Four, his taking Laura Loomer at her word about her dumb campaign for Congress being censored. There are others, but that's four very serious journalistic fuck-ups that he's made in less than an hour of his show, so I expect that one of these should definitely be the thing that he's apologizing for. Yeah, that's a good one. No, it's not. Oh, no. So, I'm sorry. I said 0.32. I'm sorry. He's talking about the Texas death rate. Great. It's a fraction of that. How much smaller is 0.32 from 0.32? Can somebody do the math in there? What? What fraction of that is that? Because that's some horrible fake news I put out. God, I don't work for the UN. I just told you that it's hundreds of times worse than it is. I'm sorry. I misread it. It wasn't on purpose. I admit it. It's not 0.32. It's 0.032.
