If I were a billionaire Democrat, I’d buy FOX and change its editorial slant. Then there would be no mass outlet MSM alternative. I wonder if any such approaches have been made to Mr. Murdoch.

A couple years old but even truer today that it was then. Today the fight is taken directly to the democrats and they can't silence opposition that can confront them directly.

Why Conservatives Must Join the Battle for America On Twitter

One example of the direct reaction enabled by twitter is the ridiculous claim and push for "Equal pay for women". When Nancy Pelosi (her staff) posts something about it, its immediately met with dozens of conservatives who point out that the 1963 equal pay act made it illegal to pay women less for the same job. Further, they are reminded that that if its happening, the Holder justice department isn't doing anything about it.

The real value in it is the fact that the twitter followers of those democrats see it and can either ignore it or start wondering. Sure many do simply ignore it but some are being forced to reality.

Don’t know who is responsible - Democrat, Saudi, or what — but I’d say they changed a long time ago, which is why I am no longer a viewer.

Perfect.

Someone like George Soros could buy FOXNews, flip it to a liberal network like MSNBC... lose most viewers and bundles of money...

Then ...

Investors sensing a hole in the market will start a new conservative network - which will be wildly successful - pulling in all the old FOX viewers - and then some...

After a few years some rich liberal billionaire could buy the new conservative network... turn it into a liberal MSNBC... and start the process over.

Great way to drain money from liberal idiots - maybe we can get them to invest in an “Air America II” while we're at it.
