MAGA-aligned billionaires Larry Ellison and his son David have dramatically won a bidding war for CNN’s parent company—and are now on track to turn it Trumpy.
Their Paramount Skydance company suddenly has won its bidding war against Netflix to acquire Warner Bros. Discovery after upping its bad and the younger Ellison attending Donald Trump’s State of the Union address.
The move comes two days after Paramount Skydance revised its offer for the media conglomerate which also owns HBO, and is Hollywood’s biggest movie make, from $30 per share to $31 per share.
Once the deal goes through CNN is widely expected to come under the control of Bari Weiss, the MAGA-curious Substacker who now runs CBS News. That network is already reeling from her turbulent leadership, with Anderson Cooper quitting 60 Minutes to focus solely on his CNN role—meaning that he will be reunited with her in the near future.

OAN tried to get into the Cable universe but the Biden Junta shut them down . If CNN does become Conservative expect a similar outcome to happen.
Bkmk
If CNN becomes a legit news source FOX will be sweating bullets.
Now, watch as numerous airports across the land try to ease out of their contracts to broadcast CNN 24/7/365, as has been the custom since the dawning of the internet.
“New Rules!!”

Lol, you’re right. It’ll suddenly be MS Now.
I won’t believe a word of this unless I actually see it.
Competition is good. Can make both of them work harder and be more careful about the truth. But only if they want to.
A pro-American one would be nice.
And one that occasionally would report a nice story would be good. Human interest I think they used to be called. Something about nice people doing nice things. Maybe one an hour.
Surely somewhere in this country there are 24 nice things that happen per day.
“one that occasionally would report a nice story would be good. Human interest I think they used to be called. Something about nice people doing nice things. Maybe one an hour.”
Could not agree more.
News has turned into a broken record of bad news, bad news, bad news.
So long as Tapper and the sodomite Anderson Cooper are gone, it will be worth it.
Gloom, despair and agony on me
Deep dark depression, excessive misery
If it weren’t for bad luck, I’d have no luck at all
Gloom despair and agony on me.
David Ellison gave $930,000.00 to Biden in 2024 (before he dropped out).
I doubt they are turning it conservative. And Larry Ellison is very far from being conservative.
Not Portland news stations. It’s fake news fake news, some grooming, free stuff and TDS.
What similar outcome did you mean regarding OAN?
When Ted Turner began CNN on June 1st, 1980, he envisioned the network as a way to bring people together in
“brotherhood and kindness”.
The results, to date, have been somewhat different than that.
👍👍👍
We won’t have CNN to kick around anymore?
