The New York Times reports that The Onion plans to acquire InfoWars and relaunch it as a parody site, with comedian Tim Heidecker serving as creative director. The host characterizes this as "identity theft" and a violation of civil rights, intended to misrepresent his 35-year career. He vows to fight the acquisition in court, asserting that the "bad guys" are trying to wear his skin like a scene from Silence of the Lambs.
