On November 15, 2020, The Wall Street Journal reported that Hicks Equity Partners, a private equity firm with ties to a co-chair of the Republican National Committee, was exploring a buyout of Newsmax. The Hicks group identified a team of executives who would manage the network, and had been talking to former Fox News hosts including Megyn Kelly.[40] Media analyst Michael Nathanson reported that if a competing network took 20% of Fox News' audience, it could sap about $200 million in annual profit from the company. In an interview with Variety, Newsmax CEO Christopher Ruddy stated "we are not actively selling" the company though he had expressions of interests from investors. Regarding Hicks Equity Partners, Ruddy stated, "we have no deal with them."[37] Ruddy stated that "We would like to overtake Fox News in 12 months, and I think it's doable."[41]
They would have bongino in a second. This explains the push. Fox News would be dead in the water with Parler and Gab taking out Twitter and fake book.
It’s not even about trump.
He wanted the last laugh with media and Twitter and they are shitting their pants. This is the real war not the optics war of the election. This is the parallel economy.
Trump or no trump we HAVE to support these platforms. Don’t use Twitter google Facebook products.
If they are going to fuck us atleast make an soft effort to fuck them in metrics.
What is AT&T doing?
I just got out of a rabbit hole fren.
Someone has to go down there Pede!
They already ruined one cable news network.
To me it looks like titanious corporations engaging in shady as fuck law fare trying to stop a burgeoning parallel economy.
It would be like inventing am conservative talk radio again.
Newsmax is Fake News. They're calling Biden the next President.
My point is IF we acquired properties like this we win big picture and have a platform in media.
They are genuinely concerned about new products the capital thing is just an event trigger to shut down competing products.
Capitalism is the weakness of these oligarchs. Not listening isn’t enough.
I agree - I mean I guess we should care about more consolidation and/or elimination but honestly, I don’t even like Newsmax.
A little OAN and a lot of TDW pretty much covers things for me.
