Oliver referred to Jones as “the Walter Cronkite of shrieking batshit gorilla clowns.” He teased Jones for his multiple conspiracy theories, including how tap water is somehow turning frogs gay. The second time I positioned myself lower and centrally, and used the longest lens I have to capture only hands reaching for a handshake.John Oliver did an in-depth segment on InfoWars host Alex Jones and the increase in coverage he is getting, responding to a previous complaint of Jones’ that he is often taken out of context.
But then there is always something that can make it special - in this case the background made of US and Chinese flags. And they all look similar - two big men, smiling and heartily greeting each other until everyone gets their shot.
I would imagine there were some more handshakes I haven't seen but other photographers did. If I'm not mistaken in calculation, presidents Xi Jinping and Donald Trump shook their hands at least six times in events I covered during Trump's recent visit to China. Photographer Damir Sagolj: "It's one of those "how to make a better or at least different shot when two presidents shake hands several times a day, several days in row". But I guess the image catches a glimpse of what it's like to be a West Wing staffer on the road."ĭonald Trump and China's President Xi Jinping shake hands after making joint statements at the Great Hall of the People in Beijing on 9 November, 2017. I liked the photo, but had no idea it would go a little bit viral, especially since Scaramucci, who was the biggest mover and shaker that week, was hidden back in the pack. When I raised my camera and back-pedalled ahead of the group to take this image Lewandowski gave me a hello. It's crucial to know who's who and why they're important. For those of us covering the Trump administration, there seem to be more compelling figures in the West Wing than ever before. But there are also the staff who support them. Jonathan Ernst: "The most visible person in any White House is naturally the President, followed by the press secretary. I don’t want to see him kissing goblins, having political succubus with goblins, I don’t want to see him ingratiating goblins.”įormer campaign manager Corey Lewandowski says hello to reporters as he and White House advisors including Communications Director Anthony Scaramucci accompany President Trump for an event celebrating veterans at AMVETS Post 44 in Ohio, July 25, 2017. President Donald Trump nevertheless expressed his admiration for Alex Jones’s “amazing reputation” on the campaign trail, praise that was later rewarded with one of his weirdest public statements: ”I never expected Trump charging into a goblin’s nest to not get some goblin vomit and slop and blood on him - I just don’t want to catch him in bed with a goblin. No one was hurt, but Mr Jones was forced to apologise for his part in spreading the rumour. Edgar Maddison Welch, 28, shot up the venue with an AR-15 assault rifle after deciding to “self-investigate” the claim. His propagation of the notorious “Pizzagate” conspiracy theory – about senior Democrats running an occult paedophile ring from the basement of a restaurant in Washington, DC – was also blamed for inspiring a shooting that took place at the pizzeria in question, Comet Ping Pong, in December 2016. He is currently being sued by several families whose children were among the 27 killed when gunman Adam Lanza, 20, burst into the Connecticut school and opened fire.
He has repeatedly claimed that the Sandy Hook Elementary School massacre in December 2012 was “completely faked with actors”, a hoax sponsored by the Obama administration to provide a pretext for introducing stiffer firearms restrictions. Alex Jones sued by six more families of Sandy Hook victims.
