My opinion is that the persona known as Alex Jones represents the views of the US Military. That is, increased military presence around the world and in civil life, Zionism and Freemasonry. Stratfor pays him to champion Israel. They pay him to pretend DIA hoaxes are real. They pay him to attack the competition: mostly DHS, at this point.

Once you understand the motives of his paymasters he is easy to dissect. That's not to say that Alex Jones never speaks the truth. It's just that he becomes silent in the face of certain powers. That is why he was created. All other Youtube stars can be dissected in exactly the same way. They are all paid to have blind spots. They are paid to refuse to speak on certain subjects without being given a script beforehand. This is the agreement they all have to sign before becoming an Internet sensation.
