Infowars Sale to The Onion Rejected by Federal Bankruptcy Judge
www.nytimes.com
The Onion’s bid for the conspiracy website was supported by the families of victims of the Sandy Hook shooting and a nonprofit focused on ending gun violence.

“It seemed doomed almost from the moment they decided to go to a sealed bid,” Judge Lopez said. “Nobody knows what anybody else is bidding,” he added.

    A complicating factor here is that the Sandy Hook families (who as far as I know are the large majority of the creditors) also supported the sale.

    I assume there are other creditors who didn’t?

      AFAIK the damages paid to the Sandy Hook families were the sole reason he went bankrupt in the first place; without them he’d be profiting.
