One of my running theories is that most of these partisan pundits and talkers really don't believe much of what they say, or at least know that much of what they say is just partisan bullshit, even if their fans don't get it. It's why I compare partisan politics to professional wrestling.
Here's an interesting little story: InfoWars' Alex Jones Is a 'Performance Artist,' Lawyer Claims
The Alex Jones who told his legions of "Infowars" listeners that bogus stories about the U.S. government being behind the 9/11 attacks and about Hillary Clinton operating a pedophile ring out of a Washington D.C. pizza joint is really "a performance artist."

Judging Jones by his Infowars performances would be like judging Jack Nicholson by his depiction of the Joker on "Batman," Wilhite told state District Judge Orlinda Naranjo last week, the Austin American-Statesman reported.
