Headline is appropriate since Wenner plays for the other team these days.

Mark Steyn should offer them a dollar for it. Then, he could turn it into something quite different.

As a magazine it’s a dead business proposition.

I have to imagine though that the brand itself is worth something.

The world has so many far left liberal news outlets.

There is no market for another one.

Maybe this gay hater of Trump and us will get lucky and sell this rag for 1$ like the sellers got for NewsWeak.

Carlos Slim bought the NYT and Bezos bought the Washington Post to use for political propaganda. One of those liberal pos or someone like Soros will buy it.

There is the brand name
And the archival material

If myspace bought it they might be able to reinvigorate their music site traffic.

Damaged goods, I say. The value of the “news” part of the operation should be considered to be nearly zero dollars after the rape hoax article. That makes them more or less an online version of a static museum that has a gift shop, as you guys pointed out.

““And for them, the money to buy it would be pocket change.” “
