ATL, GA. (THECOUNT) — Infowars’ Alex Jones claims 5.6 million folks have subscribed to the Infowars newsletter and free podcast in 48 hours following his ban from Youtube.

And underfire Jones – says the publicity surrounding the action taken by the likes of YouTube, Facebook and Apple – who have blocked his content and removed his channels – has gained him millions of subscribers – not lost him followers.

‘This is very anti-free speech, this is very deceptive, Jones told Dailymail.

‘The Democrats are trying to demonize free speech, set the precedent to try to restrict free speech and so it’s a very villainous overall program.’ source

Jones’ claim of the big boost in subscriptions has not been verified.
