Just buy OANN and Newsmax and merge ‘em. That would be a great start IMO.

Fox, since the kids took over, has not been the conservative network they were.

Should Trump buy a network, hire back Liz Wheeler!!

FoxNews was never good.

The enemy was misidentified, perhaps deliberately so, to mischaracterize this as some kind of right wing infighting.

The enemy is not JUST (the current version of) Fox News.

It is much broader than that.

The enemy is all the Fake News.

President Trump has told friends he wants to start a digital media company to clobber Fox News and undermine the conservative-friendly network, sources tell Axios.

"Undermine?" More like underground! They wouldn't last a season.

“Instead, Trump is considering a digital media channel that would stream online, which would be cheaper and quicker to start.”

Digital media ‘streaming online’ is great for the liberals in the cities, but the rural areas have no broadband. Good luck getting liberals to watch.

Won't work, President Trump. Folks want to kick off their shoes, lie down on their sofas, relax and click on a conservative cable channel as easily as they can click on Fox, CNN, and/or MSNBC.

All this "digital" and "streaming" and "subscription" stuff will connect with some folks, but not the masses.

He plans to wreck Fox. No doubt about it

Fox is accomplishing that on its own.

Win (or lose) the election, Trump is going to beat his media enemies (FOX) like a drum. Some time ago (it’s been a while), Don Jr. was talking about an alternative to the enemedia so “Trump heads” & have been thinking about/working on this issue for a while already. After the major backstabbing FOX has been doing for the last 2 years or so (the mask was totally ripped off & it became blatantly obvious to even the FOX-a-holics during the election coverage), I think Trump will be very inclined to “do something”, and I’m sure it will be a ‘humdinger’.

People who ‘go against’ Trump end up paying for their treachery one way or another ... call it the “Trump Curse” or “Trump Karma”. It will work against the enemedia too - FOX is proving to be a good example thus far, with ratings crashing.

Good article from Nolte on the extent of how badly FOX has shot themselves in the foot ... maybe both feet ... ok, maybe fatally, in the head:

No way. The deep state will proclaim it racist and deny all access and licensing.

FOX news has been playing Conservatives for at least 15 years. I always cringe when I hear a conservative say they trust Fox news.

this opportunity to scoop up the Right - with a better platform than Parler, a replication of what Fox once was - is an obvious one for the Trump empire to contemplate. may it happen!

I suspect that ‘media’ in some form is in Trump’s future... say in about 5 years. In the meantime, I don’t think it any accident that Steve Bannon has set up The War Room which is really quite impressive... and he just has barely got it off the ground. https://pandemic.warroom.org/

Frankly, I like the options and would be totally against the suggestions here of merging Newsmax and OANN.... I want to see them both do well.

This sounds nice, but getting carriage on national distribution systems is not easy—and he will be an Ex President when this happens. And the question would be, “why would he do this?”

And he is already a billionaire in a business that he “knows” and has not managed in 4 years.

I think if he loses he goes back to being “the Donald.”

I don’t think he owes “us” or the “country” anything. Who needs the crap? Certainly he has better things to do.
