Alex Jones’ attorney today argued that “no reasonable reader or listener” would expect that Jones spoke factually on his show, Infowars.

Attorney Mark Enoch today spoke on Jones’ behalf in a Travis County, Texas courtroom. In a particularly contentious moment, Enoch attempted to explain away a Jones claim that an interview between CNN host Anderson Cooper and one of the plaintiffs in today’s lawsuit was faked in front of a green screen. Jones’ proof was that Cooper’s nose appeared to disappear each time he turned his head, evidence of a botched attempt at a composite shot. “When [Cooper] turns, his nose disappears repeatedly because the green screen isn’t set right,” Jones claimed on the show. (According to CNN, and a video forensics expert hired for the court case, the effect was actually a common occurrence, a compression artifact that often happens in video encoding.)
