The Hill reports:
Sen. Chris Murphy (D-Conn.) on Monday blasted the Trump administration after Infowars said it had been given White House press credentials. “I want to throw up,” Murphy tweeted. “@POTUS has granted legitimacy to a group that believes Sandy Hook was a hoax carried out by paid actors.”
Infowars claimed on Monday it had received the credentials in an “epic blow to the mainstream media’s control of the narrative.” Reporters tweeted that the Infowars reporter appears to have been given a temporary day pass and not a permanent one.
Alex Jones, the host of the radio program “Infowars,” has alleged multiple times that the massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn., that killed 20 children was a hoax. Infowars claimed on Monday it had received the credentials in an “epic blow to the mainstream media’s control of the narrative.”
Jerome Corsi, as you probably know, is also World Net Daily‘s primary birther crackpot.
