Jones was talking, when suddenly a shadow came across the upper part of the frame. It was a fuzzy loop dangling down from the upper edge, as if somebody were hanging a loop of string in front of the camera. The loop moved over to the middle until it was around Alex's head. Then, very abruptly, the picture cut away to a different camera. It was an awkward, jarring cut.
As near as I can figure out, somebody in Alex Jones's studio decided to put a noose around Alex's neck, figuratively speaking, by dangling a loop of string or twine in front of the camera. Or it may have been done with a superimposed image, because the loop moved from the upper-left corner to the upper-middle in an oddly smooth manner. The director saw the noose, realized what was happening, and quickly cut to a different camera.
Alex didn't bat an eye. I don't think he realized what had happened. But I wonder if anyone was fired when the show went to commercial? Somebody needs to be fired. There was no mistake about what was going on -- they were simulating a noose around Alex's neck.
