BREAKING: Is Amazon chief and Washington Post owner Jeff Bezos looking to create a media empire? Investment bankers talking up the possibility of Bezos buying CNN as AT&T looks to shed assets amid massive debt load following TimeWarner deal.

Would probably get worse if that's possible by being a mouth piece for WaPo nonsense.

Are there any anti trust protections left? Will anybody try to enforce existing laws?

It used to be people got rich by building or owning a newspaper or TV station.
Now that the internet has made these financial losers, they are seeking out mega-rich buyers to bail them out in exchange for free propaganda and the loudest lobbying megaphone there is.
Sad! I wish some conservative billionaire would step up and buy some of these outlets.
Rush will soon be dead. Drudge sold out. Fox is turning left/ Every major network and newspaper has completely tossed out any notion of objectivity and turned into a complete propaganda machine for the Democrat Party, even at the expense of covering "regular" news.
It's going to be very difficult to win new minds and votes in that atmosphere. We need a counterpunch.

Changing its name to WPNN?

Why? Other than vanity? It’s not as if they’re on different teams. They use the same sources.

Is it a media empire if nobody watches your channel?

I'm not so sure. Bezos seems to like making money.

I’m not so sure the SEC should approve of the largest stockholder in the world buying a global TV “news” brand.

Wasn't there a James Bond movie plot similar to this situation?

Hell with Fox, love NewsMax.
Lindsey Keith on Spicer & Co. is brilliant and easy on the eyes.

CNN is used to help Warner Media be more successful in China.
Bezos can use it. No doubt.
