Radio Host Alex Jones Tries to Defend Charlie Sheen on 'The View' (VIDEO)

by Donald Deane, posted Feb 28th 2011 2:30PM

Alex Jones Vehemently Defends Charlie Sheen on 'The View'Alex Jones, the host of the radio show on which Charlie Sheen raged last week, vehemently defended the 'Two and Half Men' star on 'The View' (weekdays, syndicated), arguing that Sheen is a recovering addict who's being harassed and portrayed poorly by CBS, Chuck Lorre and the media.

"I just think that he's somebody going through a hard time who got clean," said Jones. "It's wrong from them to be prodding him and demonizing him and trying to make him blow up. That's actually what I believe's going on here ... Charlie's tired of being held up like the devil."

But, the discussion quickly goes off-topic as Jones relentlessly hypes his website and simultaneously rails against the TSA, financial institutions that are "bankrupting" the country and George W. Bush. Eventually, an exasperated Barbara Walters brings the segment to a close while Jones talks over her.

Seems like not only is Sheen off balance but so are his friends. He did more harm to Sheen by going off the deep end with his conspiracy theories.

The video posted here is terrible. For the full 6 or so minutes (only about 1 of those 6 minutes includes Alex pointing fingers about real topics that should be in the news, the other 5 are about Charlie), look at you tube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AVqC-ncLDk8&feature=player_embedded

Considering the fact that she supports the molestation of men, women and children, Barbara deserves more than just to be talked over.
And I love the propaganda in the article title. "Tries?" Alex didn't even need to try. Anyone with a brain knows that the media is just waisting time Demonizing a decent man who is just trying to make a living and put his negative traits behind him - something most americans can relate too. Alex also did a great job at trying to point out that we should be complaining about something more important, like the Banks robbing the public blind with TARP, or how repealing Glass-Stegall was the catalyst to our depression.
Why the hell are we concerned with Sheen's personal life, while we have much more important issues that actually affect us to worry about?

Militantidiot -- Stop being narrow minded and research the material Alex covers. He backs up every claim with evidence you moron.

I know the government is corrupt. I don't need a Texan who barely attended college to tell me that. Most of his proof is self-referential.

Alex Jones is the man. I will tell you I went to Infowars.com and it is awesome. It has changed my life. I encourage everyone to visit the site and see that, dispite how Alex Jones was acting, his website is really cool.

Wow, they really scraped the bottom of the barrel. This guy is totally looney tunes. Hasselbeck probably lobbied for him to be on the show.

Being that Hasselbeck was a Bush supporter i doubt that. Alex Jones may be a little boisterous but he's more sane than the millions of bobbleheads we have in this nation who believe everything they're told by the mainstream news.
