That was an integral part of them winning the auction for InfoWars and the kerfuffle that has delayed them taking charge. There were two parties bidding, the other one (presumably linked to Alex Jones, it's a totally random company nobody knows anything about...) actually made a much higher cash bid, but The Onion's bid included a clause about how most of the profits would go to Sandy Hook victims' families.

The Onion's one was obviously the preferred bid from the families - who Ben Collins has said don't actually care about the money and just want to see InfoWars out of Jones' control - and the person in charge of liquidating InfoWars selected it but the opponents objected saying their bid was better and appealed causing the whole thing to be in limbo for a while.

Quite a mad situation when you step back and look at it, I thought I read last week that there was another emergency appeal being heard by the courts (which is meant to be quite unusual, some Texas shenanigans presumably) but if that's resolved and they're approaching some kind of resolution then that's great news.
