Technology and space exploration billionaire Elon Musk appears to be mulling a potential purchase of the Comcast-owned, left-wing MSNBC news network. Since the 2024 election, MSNBC has seen its ratings plummet, and its parent company is moving to sell the flagging network along with other media properties, including CNBC.

Bezos bought the money-losing WASHINGTON POST ... for the political influence and power it gave him. It’s his personal propaganda rag to push whatever agenda he wants.
A Mexican (cartel?) billionaire propped up the failing NEW YORK TIMES or it’d already be bankrupt.
These money-losing old media outlets are there as the political wing of corporations.
Musk used X to help Trump win. Keep rolling buying out the leftist’s microphones.
That’s a win for us. Trump’s win means a 10x return on investment for Musk on x.
That’s right.
Here’s hoping.
He should buy it and then hire Matt Gaetz as the CEO.
I would not buy it.
I don’t have any billions to burn.
That said winners who are rich can afford trophies.
The literal heads of Butch Madcow, Joyless Reid, and Reverend Al on a platter is quite a trophy.
May be he could keep Joe and Mika around spending a couple of hours a day praising their new Daddy.
I’d call that penance.
from worst to first
*******
Bot only...OMLY...if they broadcast the TRUTH, AND have an unwavering focus on America First.
Elon must realize he’s buying a company with people who are dumber than a box or rocks.
If he does buy it, he should keep everyone including Maddow. Put her on at odd hours. Let her rant. Musk should attend tapings and just stand there and watch. Make her uncomfortable until she gives up and 'self-deports'.
I don’t get it.
She lied non stop bringing the tender to the edge of suicide nation wide.
She’s worth millions.
On election night she was finally certified an irrelevant loser.
…and this crying jag? Looks like she still trying to connect with the audience she’s been scamming to avoid taking the blame at her feet.
It’s not bizarre so much as typical no remorse, no regret, no accountability loathesome liberal behavior.
She’s as fake as the day is long.
Off camera, she’s good on the phone with her lawyers and says, how was that.
Believable, nice job they say.
The korporate entity can show losses but those owners - they are getting paid.
Would Musk have to pay the obscene contracts of MSNBC top people? He would have to revamp the company from top to bottom. Looks like good money after bad. Musk may just be screwing with them. Maddow was reduce to tears already so Musk has had some fun.
Fire them all….Give Tucker Carlson a prime time slot.
If Musk can get it for the right price, he can dismantle it.
The Maddow contract for $20M a year for five years is a poison pill for any purchaser. That comes off the purchase price. Wonder if there is any net value left.
Actually one strategy would be to force Madow to stay on the air but joining tough fact based conservatives and be forced to debate them. She would then have a couple of choices: quit which would terminate the contract, or fire her for constant lying as demonstrated. Fraud in the execution is grounds for terminating a contract and suing for damages. And what could be more fraudulent than this lying skank.
There must be some flexibility because they just lowered it.
Look at the charts -- Cable is imploding while Streaming and other (DVR time-shifting) is converting those leaving Cable. MSNBC in particular is 'aging-out', its demo looks a lot like FreeRepublic actually; unfortunately for Comcast, it is not a key demo for Cable advertising.
It's a brilliant "disruptor" move as he did with the FIB disinformation outlet formerly known as Twitter. This is why MadCow was crying, that carpet-bagger knows he can and will do it.
It's also a backhand to Gates -- do not forget that MSNBC was a Micros0ck M0ckingbird creation specifically created to spread government disinformation; Gates built the Seacaucus studios and installed his homo lieutenant Kinsella to run it.
Maybe Musk is just playing, trying to sucker someone like Soros or another communist billionaire to though their money down the toilet buying it and all the very high dollar low success “talent”.
