To Salvador Hernandez, the managing editors and the general counsel of

Buzzfeed:

We demand a full correction, clarification and retraction of the article entitled "Alex Jones Sent
Emails Containing Child Porn To Sandy Hook Victims' Lawyers" written by Salvador Hernandez
which was originally published by Buzzfeed on June 17, 2019 (https://www.buzzfeednews.com/
article/salvadorhernandez/alex-jones-child-porn-emails-sandy-hook).

The article contains the completely false assertion that Mr. Jones was distributing child
pornography.

A few key points:

– The emails were sent to Infowars by a third party
– The FBI’s investigation is treating Mr. Jones as the victim
– Some major media outlets have already distanced themselves from the hoax that
falsely claimed Mr. Jones sent the emails to Sandy Hook lawyers
– The emails ended up in a spam folder and were never opened by Infowars staff
– The emails sent to Infowars were “very hostile” and contained threats against Mr. Jones
– Plaintiff’s lawyers in the Sandy Hook case tried to subpoena 9.6 million emails
– Unopened emails did not say they contained child porn
– The entire farce was likely a set-up to frame Mr. Jones
– Mr. Jones has offered a $1 million dollar reward to find the perpetrator

Again, we demand that Mr. Hernandez and Buzzfeed immediately correct the false accusations
and implications contained in his article.

It is also noteworthy that neither Mr. Hernandez nor any representative of Buzzfeed appear to
have reached out to Mr. Jones or his legal team for comment prior to publication.
