Right. "Reached."

I mean, accurate. They have reached a deal. But an important caveat is that the deal still needs to get cleared legally.^[Source: NYT gift article] Which is fairly likely — the court that would do so was the same one in which Alex Jones lost one of his costly defamation lawsuits, so it's hardly a friend to him despite being in Texas. But even then, the idiot in question will be able to appeal the decision, so The Onion is hardly in the clear.
