The Onion, a satirical publication, recently won a bankruptcy auction to acquire Infowars, owned by conspiracy theorist Alex Jones. However, a federal judge has put a halt on the deal, leading to a new obstacle in the acquisition process.

Elon Musk has thrown a wrench into the mix by objecting to the transfer of Infowars’ X accounts to the new owners. His platform argues that these accounts are owned by X Corporation, not Jones or his company, Free Speech Systems.

Musk’s involvement in defending Jones’ social media presence is not new. In the past, Musk reinstated Jones’ banned accounts in the name of free speech, despite disagreeing with his content.

The legal battle revolves around the ownership of the X accounts, with Musk’s lawyers claiming that users do not actually own their profiles on the platform.

While the dispute continues, the federal bankruptcy judge may hold a hearing to determine the fate of The Onion’s purchase of Alex Jones’ media company. The outcome could lead to the approval of the purchase, a new auction, or the selection of another bidder as the winner.
