Bankruptcy judge rejects The Onion's bid for Infowars

The article from KGOU discusses a recent ruling by a bankruptcy judge who rejected a bid by The Onion to take over the conspiracy theory website Infowars. The satirical news outlet, known for its humor, proposed to manage Infowars as part of the bankruptcy proceedings of Free Speech Systems, Infowars' parent company.
