    Communist News Network can't go broke soon enough.

    It is so biased and one sided that it needs to go to radio or podcast level. Let the idiots who agree with far left content tune in on their car stereo. It would save AT&T a ton of money.

    I have to give Ted his due. Selling to Time Warner in 96' for 7.8 billion and the CNN Center for another $170 million was brilliant. It isn't worth a camel fart now by comparison. The brand has been destroyed. The CNN Center is probably worth more now than the CNN network.

    There was a time CNN was king of the world. How do you fuck that up?

    What I always find interesting with failing liberal corporations is that no one even remotely associated with the brand is smart enough to put a non-bias pro in charge of restructuring the brand. Its like the liberals would rather continue to force failing liberalism down everyone's throats in a company like CNN or wapo than do what is necessary to right the ship. They put liberals in charge, brilliant. Its like when a ship is on fire. What would a liberal do? They would bring on more firewood of course.

    How do you recover as a cnn or msnbc?


    I don’t think there is enough appetite for more than one 24 hour political news station for most people. For libs clearly not enough for even 1.

    And cons have no reason to switch from fox to cnn, liberals have no reason to stay if they get reasonable.

    I just can’t see the business model lasting in this day and age

    Videocast podcasters like Joe Rogan and Dan Bongino handily beat these failed Leftist cable networks in total reach when you combine the live show and those like me who listen when they are posted to Spotify. Bill Simmons, who I also listen to, has to be close, too, and these podcasts cost a fraction of what it takes to produce a live TV show at a propaganda network pretending its objective.

    Rachel Maddow making $25 million annually is probably worth it when the party is winning elections, but the message these days is almost completely anti-Trump negativity and they are losing thousands of viewers a day.

    People outside of the extreme Leftists (like our TugTards) are obviously tired of it.

    idk their ratings are down even more when Trump isn’t in. What are they gonna do when he’s gone? There is no one that can make the leftists froth with rage like he can

    It's crazy that Rogan and daily wire et all are still advertising supplements and sheets and shit like an old school local cable channel while you have billions of dollars in pharma ads and major Corp dollars going to these failing networks.

    Hopefully the whole Elon lawsuit helps break some of that stranglehold. It would massively accelerate the decline of these institutions. They're losing money while still raking in billions in advertising. Imagine how bad it would get if that revenue started fading.

    If you’re a person who wasn’t woken up when Moderna, which got staked at least $20 million by Bill Gates a few years before the Scamdemic, suddenly was sponsoring major events, you’re kind of hopeless on what really controls the establishment politicians.

    First drug/vaccine that company ever launched was the Clot Shot. What a miraculous coincidence!
