Since CNN is defective merchandise, ATT should insist that CNN be severed from the package prior to the sale and the value of the deal be reduced substantially
Which billionaire looking for CIA or other government contracts to save his business will buy CNN for purposes of deep state disinformation? Maybe the CIA will buy it directly.
Not conservative but Bill OReilly might be looking to put together a deal.
