- asdff 4y agoI have often thought about how easy it must be to be one of these crazy conservative talking heads. All you have to do is be loud, angry, and say the obvious bigoted talking points they have, and people will flock to you because you are doing it with no shame. Then once you have a bit of a base you are a player in that game for life with a career of conservative podcasting to always fall back on. Maybe you even have a shot for higher office. Of course, this all requires selling your soul, so there is some cost.

"“He’s playing a character” and is nothing like his online persona, attorney Randall Wilhite reportedly insisted in a Texas courtroom at a pre-trial hearing ahead of the right wing radio jock’s custody battle with ex-wife Kelly Jones." https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/not-fake-news-infowars-alex-jones-performance-artist-n747491 https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/not-fake-news-infowars-...
