Florida school shooting survivor turned Democratic activist David Hogg challenged Texas radio host Alex Jones to a debate Tuesday on Twitter only to back out after Jones accepted.
Hey Alex Jones you seem to be really confused as to what I do/who I am I’d love to come on and clear some of this up because clearly as a shit journalist you can’t clearly.

Wait 🤔didn’t you get sued for pedaling lies about the survivors and victims of another school shooting? Clearly someone didn’t learn from their mistakes

I might not be great with spelling or punctuation but unlike Jones do my research and don’t sell snake oil to the masses. #Jonesbrandsnakeoil

Alex Jones quickly responded saying he’d love to have Hogg on his show:
Hi David, it would be fantastic for you to come on. I would be very thankful for that. I want to set the record straight and clear things up between you and I. https://t.co/uHeDxX7Ir8

@davidhogg111 I would love to have you on today to clear up some of the disinformation that has been put out about my statements concerning the tragedy. I notice you’re calling me a “shit journalist” and “snake oil” salesman when I have never called you any disparaging names.

This categorically did not happen. https://t.co/ZsYb98yWy6

@davidhogg111 Also I have never been sued by survivors of any school shooting. Please stop the defamation. My YouTube channel with 2+ billion views has now been frozen after CNN lobbied for it to be closed in your name.

@davidhogg111 Again Mr Hogg, in your name CNN has shut down my speech on YouTube. It is critical that you come out and support the 1st Amendment and not let them use you to end free speech.
— Alex Jones (@RealAlexJones) February 27, 2018
@davidhogg111 DM me your email and my producer will set you up. Thank you.

David, you are welcome to come on the show.
Are you aware that CNN is using you as part of a lobbying campaign to shut down Infowars?
You are now a public figure & activist. You are not immune to criticism.
We know your views on the 2nd amendment. Do you support the 1st? https://t.co/uHeDxX7Ir8

Alex Jones Challenges @DavidHogg111 to a Debate pic.twitter.com/8Rob0dOmmt

Hogg backed out a few hours later saying he won’t “speak to anyone that has had [sic] disgusting remarks to victims of mass shootings in the past”:
I will not speak to anyone that has had disgusting remarks to victims of mass shootings in the past. I sent that tweet without realizing just how awful so many people have been to victims and witnesses of these events in the past.

David Hogg challenged me to a debate by bullying and viciously attacking me. After I politely accepted, he backed out when his real goal of baiting me failed. Only #HoggWash fears investigation https://t.co/DVmIPQ20nu
