I hadn’t heard of this...the Koch Bros might be making a bid to buy the LA Times. That would be an interesting and unexpected development, and one worth watching.

Given the fact that newspapers are a dying media, I’m sure that they can be picked up at bargain prices. Whether that’s a good investment (economically or ideologically) remains to be seen.

From the above link - It could be true Empire....
They’ve hired investment bankers to advise them on selling... if or not is my guess... and for how much...
Tribune Co. has hired investment bankers to advise the media company on whether to sell the division that includes the Los Angeles Times, Chicago Tribune and six other daily newspapers.

No April Fools day, but I would love to see Rush Buy NBC or CBS. They would become #1 in a week. He would see an immediate 25% return on his investment, At a minimum.

They should sell to Al Jazeera instead!
To: BenLurkin
Maybe it's reverse psychology, and the "activists" are rubbing their hands together saying, "O, that mine enemy would buy an newspaper!"
Like the old saying goes: owning a newspaper is a way to make a small fortune (by starting with a large fortune).
Actually, a lot of the later Chandlers were quite conservative -- at least according to the PBS documentary. They forced the sale of the paper to the Tribune Company. The film makers could barely contain their anger or contempt or disgust when it came to those "little" Chandlers.

The story’s been circulating for a month. If it’s AF, it’s the part about street protests.

I don't think Rush has that kind of money.

Can't think of a worse business investment than to try and sell a conservative newspaper in L.A.
Are you SURE this is not April Fool's?

Instead of it being another Pravda like it is now? Today's Pravda is moderate in comparison. Think of the LAT more like a print version of MSNBC.
To: BenLurkin
Good.
now, maybe we can discover what’s on that tape of Obama and the Muslim dinner.
