Being that his videos are free, and that his web site doesn't charge money for access, I can't see what makes you say that.
Who REALLY profitted?
Try Haliburton, Carlye Group, many unnamed companies that deal in military supplies and equipment, and of course, Israel.
Not to mention those that placed all of those "Put" options on American Airlines and United.
Let's not forget Larry Silverstein either, as he made out like a bandit on the insurance money for the WTC towers.
We can also add the federal buracracy to the list, with the implentation of the Patriot Act and the Department of Homeland Security, TSA, and all of the law enforcement agencies collecting money for the "war on terror".

Alex Jones makes money off of conspiracy theories. There is no disputing that. Without conspiracy theories to exploit, Jones wouldn't even have any websites, videos or a radio show.
He gives away some videos free the way a crack dealer gives away samples to get people hooked.
No of course you didn't but then you made a comparison to a crack dealer.
The implication was clear.
The implication is that Alex Jones is a snake oil salesman, peddling fear, lies and sensationalism to people desperate for understanding of our complex and rapidly changing world.
He's not trying to spread the "truth" or save the American republic, he's playing on people's fears and insecurities. He hypes up the "New World Order" ten times more than Bush hypes up al-Qaeda.
He's not trying to spread the "truth" or save the American republic, he's playing on people's fears and insecurities.
Pffft, so what.
If people want to buy it to watch and listen, it's their prerogative.
It's the first amendment.
As far as exploiting peoples fear and insecurities, hell, the entire advertising industry partakes of that, from home alarm systems to snazzy new pills for restless leg syndrome.
Jones was born in Parkland Hospital in Dallas, Texas,[1] and grew up in the suburb of Rockwall, Texas.[2] He began his career in Austin with a live, call-in format cable access television program. In 1996, Jones switched format to KJFK, hosting a show named The Final Edition.[3] In 1997, he released his first documentary film, America Destroyed By Design
In 1999, he won that year's "Best of Austin" poll as radio host, voted by Austin Chronicle readers. Later that year, he was fired from KJFK-FM. According to the station's operations manager Jones was fired because his viewpoints made the show hard to sell to advertisers and he refused to broaden his topics. Jones argued: "It was purely political, and it came down from on high", and, "I was told 11 weeks ago to lay off Clinton, to lay off all these politicians, to not talk about rebuilding the church, to stop bashing the Marines, A to Z."
In 2000, Jones and assistant Mike Hanson infiltrated the Bohemian Club and filmed the opening weekend ceremony, known as the Cremation of Care, which he says has Druidic and Pagan backgrounds. His footage can be viewed in his documentary "Dark Secrets Inside Bohemian Grove." A different - and less conspiratorial - interpretation of the ceremony was reported by their fellow trespasser, the British journalist Jon Ronson in his book Them: Adventures with Extremists and documentary series Secret Rulers of the World.
On July 1, 2002, Jones started the Save The Bill of Rights Campaign to repeal the Patriot Act.[4] Further in 2002, Jones released 9-11: The Road to Tyranny. In 2005, he released another film, Martial Law: 9/11 Rise of the Police State.
On June 8, 2006, Jones was stopped and detained at the Canadian border while on his way to cover a meeting of the Bilderberg group in Ottawa.[5] Jones has appeared in two Richard Linklater movies as an actor: Waking Life (2001) and A Scanner Darkly (2006).
