Related reporting places the rumor in Maricopa County, Arizona, amid protests at the county’s vote-tabulation center after Joe Biden won the county in 2020. It says Alex Jones was encouraging the crowd, where the story circulated: “Rumors bubbled up from the crowd’s fevered imagination, including a debunked tale that hundreds of ballots had been shredded, transported to a chicken farm and burned in a henhouse fire.” That passage directly matches the claim’s central details: ballots allegedly shredded, moved to a chicken farm and burned in a fire. The reporting characterizes the story as debunked, not as a documented event. The supplied excerpt does not describe how the rumor was investigated or provide the underlying evidence for that conclusion, so it does not support a more detailed account of the fact-checking methods.
