Roku announced Tuesday night that it has pulled the InfoWars app from its platform after hearing from "concerned parties," CNN's Oliver Darcy reports.
The backdrop: Per Darcy, InfoWars was previously available on Roku but "recently published an updated app," which prompted backlash from users who noticed that the conspiracy site had appeared on their streaming devices. Jones, a controversial figure who has been banned from Twitter, Facebook and YouTube, is currently being sued by the families of the Sandy Hook school shooting for claiming the massacre was a "false flag" operation by paid actors.
