Kit Daniels

Kit Daniels is an American journalist and web analyst known for his work with Infowars, founded by Alex Jones. Daniels has gained notoriety for promoting conspiracy theories and misinformation, particularly around significant national events and political topics.

Career

Daniels began his career in journalism working with various alternative media outlets before joining Infowars. At Infowars, Daniels contributed to content that often supported the site's agenda, which included skepticism towards mainstream media, government operations, and globalist policies. A frequent collaborator with Alex Jones, Daniels contributed to the spread of several high-profile conspiracy theories, leveraging the reach of the Infowars platform.

Controversies

Throughout his tenure at Infowars, Daniels became embroiled in multiple controversies. Notably, he was involved in promoting narratives related to the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting, suggesting conspiracy theories that questioned the veracity of the event. This stance, in alignment with other Infowars content, led to widespread criticism and legal challenges against the outlet.

Daniels was also part of the team that pushed the narrative of the Pizzagate conspiracy theory, which falsely alleged that prominent political figures were involved in a child trafficking ring operated out of a Washington, D.C., pizzeria. This theory was debunked by numerous credible sources but gained traction among certain online communities, largely due to amplification by far-right platforms.

Another significant controversy arose during the coverage of events related to the Boston Marathon bombing, where Daniels advanced theories casting doubt on the official story, further entrenching the suspicious rhetoric that Infowars was known for.

Association with Alex Jones

As a trusted journalist within the Infowars operation, Daniels worked closely with Alex Jones, echoing and expanding upon the content created by Jones himself. The collaboration helped further the reach of Infowars conspiratorial messaging, although it also stirred considerable backlash and actions from social media companies aiming to limit the spread of harmful misinformation.
