    Note that this doesn’t mean InfoWars gets sold to anyone (including the company affiliated with Jones). It means that everyone has to re-bid.

      Right and now the parents, who already said they were satisfied with the offer, can watch as it gets sold right back to the shitheads who caused the lawsuit to happen in the first place. Either that or those shitheads can bid some outrageously high number that either guarantees them ownership or guarantees the parents must forgive a much larger portion of the debt so that someone else like the Onion can own it.

      Either way the parents are facing a worse outcome now.
