The Charlie Sheen Obama "Interview" Was Originally Presented As Having Actually Happened.

For the first 90+ minutes of availability, the InfoWars.com website was presenting this article as an actual interview by Charlie Sheen with President Obama. Some time after the interview first appeared, the comments, "What you have just read didn’t actually happen… yet," were added to the article on InfoWars.com.

You have potentially been hoaxed by Alex Jones for nearly two hours this morning.



UPDATE 2

The rationale for originally omitting the disclaimer at the bottom of the fictional interview has been offered:
Separately, a few other blogs were up in arms about Sheen’s letter being a “hoax” because the disclaimer clarifying that the meeting with Obama was a stylized fictional account and not a real event did not get added to the bottom of the article until a little later due to technical snafus and a bombardment of traffic that shut down servers and locked out Infowars and Prison Planet webmasters. With the Infowars version having been copied across from Prison Planet, both original versions did not contain the disclaimer until the error was brought to our attention and promptly fixed as soon as we could gain access to servers that kept crashing, as many readers noted at the time. We added the disclaimer as soon as possible as well as other information that should have been included at the bottom of the original article regarding Sheen’s appearance on the show. We apologize for any confusion this may have caused and are trying to move our servers in house to prevent this routine occurrence from happening again.

UPDATE 3

The "traffic bombardment" rationale that caused an inability to add the disclaimer seems unlikely: The content is delivered through a CDN service.







Here is the link to the originally posted interview, before the additional comment indicating the interview was fiction:
Original Charlie Sheen "Twenty Minutes With The President" Story - With No Disclaimer

Thanks to ATS member getreadyalready for capturing the unedited original page.













today on www.infowars.com... they released a transcript of the interview Charlie Sheen performed recently with Barack Obama.

Charlie mainly asks questions regarding 9/11, but he briefly covers a few other topics as well.

i'll cut to the chase and let you guys judge the interview for yourselves:
www.infowars.com...

whats everyone think??

are you happy with the questions Charlie asked? are you satisfied with the (vague) answers Obama replied with?

what's your favorite part of the interview??

i wonder if the President knew what he was getting into... i have a feeling he did






This is a fictional interview that never happened

Was this the 'big news' Alex was talking about? The interview that would make headlines all over America? Or is that still to come? Alex said the bombshell would be released at 11 A.M. but it wasn't 11 A.M. in any U.S. time zone when that was released.

I'm going to go check out the interview now but was hoping someone could answer that while I'm reading the article. lol

you may very well be totally right! mostly everything the president says is either scripted, rehearsed, or staged...

i also wondered how Charlie got this interview with Obama so abruptly. i didn't ever hear any advertising for the interview - it's like it just happened out of nowhere unexpectedly. when exactly was this interview conducted? i know it was posted today, but when did it take place?

well the show starts at 11am CST, so at noon here in EST - as far as i know...

i don't think we'll ever get a straight answer until it begins...

the discussion about it though is the hottest thing on ATS right now anyhow:

The interview didn't happen.


Author’s Note: What you have just read didn’t actually happen… yet. This is an open letter to the President requesting a new investigation. Charlie Sheen.

Sheen’s request takes the form of a letter to the President in the context of a fictionalmeeting between the two entitled “20 Minutes With The President,” published exclusively on radio talk show host Alex Jones’ Infowars.com and Prison Planet.com websites.

you know what, you're actually right in saying that...

i just wonder when (and if) this will surface in the mainstream media news!

as big as this is, i still don't think this is what Alex Jones is raving about for his show today...

then again, it might be a discussion about this interview, and maybe he'll have an interview with Charlie Sheen, too... maybe something that Obama told Charlie off the record that he'll spill the beans on to Alex perhaps?...

Relax. I was just trying to see if this was the big announcement or if something else was going to happen at 11. In my post above I even mention I hadn't read the interview yet but was going right now (as in, I didn't even know what the content was to be able to judge its importance yet). I was confused because the bombshell was supposed to be released at 11- which hadn't happened yet. So please calm down.




I just read the whole thing and had a post I was working on while reading to analyze the interview. I was so proud of Charlie but then get to the comments section and the whole thing is fake? Huh?

So I'm thinking what is going to be released will actually have something to do with this? I am so lost. What is the point of having a fake interview transcript?
