The largest investor in Vox is NBC Universal.

Spit.

Others besides them have only remained afloat because of buy outs at pennies on the dollar.

I like Scott Adams.

If these leftists going down with the ship won’t even listen to anti-Antifa, anti-identitarian, anti-instersectionalist, but yet still liberal Tim Pool, then they won’t listen to anyone.

But tell us Scott, will Dilbert ever make the C-Suite?

I wish someone would expose how Vox was started by Ezra Klein, the partisan media guy behind Journolist, a site where left wing journalists colluded to shape the news for the liberal agenda.

Vox only survives because someone pushes their own money down into the ‘spiral hole’ to keep it afloat. I would take a guess that they burn through three million a month for operations cost and salaries. Whoever is paying for them....will continue to do so until November of 2020. Within 3 months after that (figuring Trump wins), I would agree that it’ll either fold up or be sold off.

I’m not sure about the Daily Beast potential. In terms of readership ranking....they actually rank a good piece behind Vox, and probably pull even less profit/cash flow than Vox. Maybe they will be bought out by someone who has cash (this year) and carry them through to November 2020.

I have wondered how many media outlets are “too big to fail,” because the only ones I have seen go under lately are Current TV and the American outlet of Al Jazeera, and neither of them were major players. Therefore I’ll be watching to see if Scott Adams is right on this.

Umm, yeah, Scott Adams is probably a bit off on his prediction. I don't blame his reasoning, I just blame economics of a presidential election cycle and the upcoming census. Both should be economic booms for Vox and Daily Beast and forestall their closure.

So figure around June 2021 would be the demise.

Vox and Daily Beast might survive, but only if it has massive injections of liquidity from the likes of George Soros and other Left-leaning billionaires. The Washington Post still exists because of Jeff Bezos being a "sugar daddy."
