Honestly, who wants to be on the hook for those salaries? Yikes. Sinking ship.

I don't care who buys it as long as they give Alex Jones an afternoon slot

What the next headline needs to be:

"American Businessman Elon Musk in talks to purchase flailing networks MSNBC and Oxygen from Comcast for a reported $350,000".

There has to be a big-money conservative willing to even up the coverage, and take some losses until he rights the ship.

Death spiral, advertisers will be getting refund per rating covenants if not just cancel their ads.

Would actually be the funniest thing I've ever seen if he did this just to layoff everyone there and start over.

Does this mean Joyless Reid, the professional race baiter will be on the unemployment line?

And put Alex Jones in Rachel Maddow’s spot.

MSNBC is probably worth a fraction of what he paid for Twitter (44 Billion)

Musk needs to buy and turn it into a X channel much like you have business channels. Some based peeps to talk about tweets of the day.l and trending tweets

Need to hire AB as one of them and he can post his Cracker of the Day.

Loading Twitter/X Embed...
If tweet fails to load, click here.

Even cable news is dying. Nobody under 50 watches that shite anymore and instead get plenty of news and I for from X or YouTube long-form podcasts with deep dive guests like what Tucker does now.

Honestly, I don't know who would buy this other than Bezos to prop up WaPo.

They’d rather hand it to someone willing to eat their debt than sell it to him if prior precedent with Newsweek et all is any indication.

They are going to break off MSNBC (originally Micro Soft NBC) from NBCUniversal Group?
