record in custody court admitting that his persona on Infowars is just an act.
Events like this are designed as a go/no-go test.
Host refuses to recant in court, the media and courts destroy them.
If they do, they are seen as "compliant" and allowed to continue their punditry, as long as they are always willing to defer when told to do so.
It's basically the regime saying "you're big. you 'made' it. Now you get to decide whether you sink or swim, right here right now."
In this way, if you ever go off script, out of the woodwork comes a million fellow travelers to say "so and so has no credibility. He even admitted in court that its pure entertainment and no sane person would believe the bullshit spewed on his show."
And then they have to live with that the rest of the time they're in business, probably decades.
