My man, you don't have to mince words here. This hostile bid is backed by Jared Kushner, who is the President's son in law. One Rich Asshole owns Paramount, and is most certainly supporting the bid here.

This deal would also leave CNN in a very vulnerable position (they are owned by WB), which is exactly what Trump wants.





Strong ”I am the State” vibes.

Does seem to be the direction things are going. The admin picks the winners and losers, and of course the real winners are Trump, family and allies.

One thing that is remarkable is how fast American media companies are folding or getting scooped up by the oligarchs in order to bring the sacrificed carcass to the ruler. Even Putin did not have it this easy - took him years.

It took decades, this is the late stages of an organized and intentional process they've been working towards, and spending vast amounts of money on, since the 1990s if not earlier.

The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing

It took years to get here tho. The oligarchs worked on this for years.
