I ignored the question until you answered mine.
Happy to answer yours - I'd relate it to my personal experience and also research into people who consider themselves 'psychics'.
Many of them will do things like:
i) Crassly link their sites to affiliated products they haven't really checked out.
ii) 'Cheat' (even to their own definition) when it suits them.
iii) Ham up their performance in all manner of barmy ways.
iv) Use both cold-reading and hot-reading techniques, both consciously and unconsciously.
Nevertheless, most of these people genuinely believe they have 'a gift', genuinely believe they are helping people and are basically sincere.
Sure, there's going to be a bit of cognitive dissonance going on, but the points you have made do not in themselves suggest to me that anything different is going on with Alex Jones. His 'gift' is his ability to see through the bullshit and bring the truth to the sheeple.
I could, of course, be completely wrong and he could be a 100% cynical shyster - I was wondering whether you had anything on him beyond 'this all smells a bit rum', though.
