Filmmaker arrested during city protest - New York Daily News Alex Jones, a fringe filmmaker who believes President Bush* was responsible for 9/11, was arrested last night by the NYPD. Jones, 33, of Austin, Tex., was charged with operating a bullhorn without a permit during a protest at Sixth Ave. and 48th St. about 8:30 p.m., cops said. Two other people were issued summonses for disorderly conduct during Jones' arrest, police said. Cops provided no further details. But a fellow protester, Lamarr Johnson, 27, of the South Bronx, said the group had seized the opportunity to crash a live TV show featuring Geraldo Rivera at the site. "It was ... guerrilla information warfare," Johnson said. Jones is closely linked to the 9/11 Truth Movement, which believes the British government carried out the 2005 London subway bombings, among other far-out theories. * Note, once again shoddy journalism/sensationalism comes to the fore, Alex has never said "President Bush carried out 9/11". ----------------------------------------------- And the creme de la creme comes from the talented writers at the New York Post... 9/11 NUT BUSTED IN MIDTOWN - NY Post Well-known 9/11 conspiracy theorist Alex Jones was arrested last night during a Midtown rally designed to mark the sixth anniversary of the World Trade Center attacks. Jones, 33, was filming a documentary about the WTC attacks in front of 1211 Sixth Ave. - headquarters of The Post and the Fox News Channel - at about 8:30 p.m. when cops busted him for shouting through a bullhorn without a permit, sources said. He was later released. Jones is a figure in the so-called "9/11 Truth Movement," which insists the government was behind the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks.
