“Why do you care? :)”

I don’t care that much; it’s just my opinion. I believe actions should be taken only if there’s something to gain—whether it’s moral satisfaction or financial benefit.

In my opinion, if MSNBC were to go under, that would already provide moral satisfaction, eliminating any need to purchase it. News channels have been overshadowed and replaced by other platforms for years, so who really cares if MSNBC ceases to exist? Why waste money.

A classic win-win. Either the lefties panic and sink a ton of throwing good money after bad, into the bottomless pit; or Elon buys it, turns it around and makes money.

“The Maddow contract for $20M a year for five years is a poison pill for any purchaser.”

************

Maybe, but it may depend on whether the company is bought outright or its assets are purchased separately.

Anyone with legal background know how this might work?

XD.... Just have The Donald break into Maddow’s show in the middle of a rant and say “You’re Fired”

He can. Cut the salaries 75%, then give pay raises based on ratings.

Oh, that would be AWESOME!

The clip of that happening, if they put it on YouTube, would fry the servers because it’d be rewatched SO many times!

What would Elon do with a cable channel ? Probably something we haven’t thought of, and something that could be streamable as cable is dying, absent a restructuring of the cable industry.

News is out...NBC will provide no journalistic help. An expensive staffing of journalists, studios news bureaus around the world would be needed if he wanted to compete in the news genre.

Liberal talk might be profitable minus a few of those ridiculous salaries, but its contrary to his thinking.

Conservative news/talk competes with FOX.

He’s not stupid and won’t buy it, unless he’s got something else up his sleeve.

And it will prosper beyond belief.

I’d actually watch it.

What a kick in the teeth for the left to see their stuff rejected and right flourishing in their place.

The explosive way:

Buy MSNBC and America’s voice (https://americasvoice.news/). Close the MSNBC offices and broadcast America’s voice as MSNBC.

The gradualist way:

Communists took over gradually. In reverse, buy MSNBC. Start by getting rid of the worst, putting in and rewarding moderation. Later, add some conservative content. Then change the mix to moderate and conservative. Add more conservative content. Finally, replace the moderates with conservatives. This way, you reprogram the existing viewers instead of sending them packing.

Charlie Kirk sitting next to Maddow; doing a show together?
Nope -- Charlie couldn't tolerate the smell.

I loved his tweet when all he said was “How much is it?”. Like we would ask when buying a pair of shoes. It made me LOL.
