On Tuesday, all three network morning shows were gleeful over the news that Barack and Michelle Obama had signed a deal with Netflix to create original content for the online streaming service. Hosts happily touted “a lot of people very excited” about the announcement and cheered that the former president and first lady “got paid,” with the agreement rumored to be worth tens of millions of dollars. Missing from much of the adulation, except for a brief mention on NBC, was the fact that the Netflix executive in charge of content was a major Obama campaign donor.
“This morning, the Obamas are stepping back into the spotlight, entering into a multi-year agreement to produce films and series with the streaming giant Netflix,” correspondent Dylan Dreyer proclaimed on NBC’s Today show. “In a press release, the former president says both he and Mrs. Obama ‘hope to cultivate and curate the talented, inspiring, creative voices who are able to promote greater empathy and understanding between peoples,’” she explained.

We have the choice to not watch.
Cashing in on his fame.
How...”Presidential”....not.
At last, a REAL job!
That was the last straw for me, I’m not going to support those grifters.
I’ll take my <$10 per month elsewhere!!
Looking for a replacement. Any suggestions? Hopefully, a streaming site that won’t force me to fund the LEFT. Do any exist?
I cut my cable tv to stop funding the LEFT MEDIA CARTEL. Now I need to do the same with streaming.
I shall X R size that option. I know some folks will cancel their NOTflix but probably not enough to make a difference. Well, if they have/had it anyway.
More income....all about as deserved and earned as Barack’s Nobel Prize.
Titled....Another Day in Gitmo, only 30,000 to go.
That’ll be real exciting, a huge ratings hit.
No wonder naziflix wanted protection with protectionist net supremacy legislation.
LOL! Yeah right. Anyone think they’ll actually write anything? They’ll toss out some lame idea that will be thought to be brilliant by the psychos lining the hallways and they’ll write the whole mess. All you’ll see is “Produced by”, “From a story suggested by”.....blah blah blah cha ching!
And Obama has a new job with them also.
It's like a miracle.
Real benefit of Netflix?? No censoring.
“...creative voices who are able to promote greater empathy and understanding between peoples...’”
Hhuhhhh?
What’s bog MO gonna do? Recite from her PhD. Dissertation?
Y’know...where she talked about how much she hated the world
Hope he makes a movie about how he delivered 17 billion to iran, and how he allowed 4 Americans to die in Benghazi rather than annoy his best buds.
apparently a boycott of netflix has broken out-
#boycottnetflix
This will not end well, financially, for Netflix, but they will continue with the scam as a loss-leader. None of the far left attempts in talk radio or TV is able to commercially be profitable.
The stupid thing Netflix did is put themselves in the position of having to decide how to terminate this arrangement when it goes down the drain financially. In time, they will be faced with the prospect of canning the Obozos. LOL
THANK GOODNESS!
I cancelled Netflix after they brought Susan Rice onboard. Wife and daughter have been campaigning to get Netflix back...until this.
;-)
I’d like to see Trump sue them and take it all.
Just another example of how this low-class family exploits their ex-positions. The Iran deal stunk so badly Obozo couldn’t even get Congress to ratify it as a Treaty, but do you really think that some of that cash didn’t filter back to him? From being the first President in the history of this Republic to sequester virtually every document from his and Michelle’s past to the pardons he made on the days just before leaving office, this charlatan cashed out on the office he held. Even worse, the media didn’t even bother to check.
I cancelled Netflix when they hired Susan Rice.
