Musk See TV: Should Elon Musk Buy MSNBC?

Since the dawn of time, male has gazed to the sky and wondered,” What would be, like, the most spectacular monster of all time? Cuz that’d been cruel cool”!

History is rife with teasing cases, both good and bad. A triumphant Hitler poses in front of the Eiffel Tower soon after France collapses like an accordion, which falls into this category. These black and white images served as potent advertising for the war. &nbsp,

Socially, the most famous one is definitely a wide-smiling Harry Truman holding the news that falsely proclaimed,” Dewey Defeats Truman”. No one will ever miss the error that was published in the Chicago Daily Tribune, which must have been a mixed blessing for the publisher.

Every day that picture ran — and Lord knows it’s been printed and reprinted a million-gazillion times — the Chicago Daily Tribune’s brand and product is printed and reprinted, also. As crazy as it sounds, it’s gotten a ton of complimentary attention from it over the past 75 years! It has definitely sold a lot of membership, which is directly tied to advertising income.

Unfortunately, blowing that vote and botching that title might’ve been a clever business decision!

Speaking of wise business decisions, this idea our hat to the nation’s wealthiest guy, Elon Musk. He’s got missiles in the sky, vehicles on the ground, tunnels below&nbsp, the earth, and X in our bag. He’s even got a brand-new best pal in the White House. &nbsp,

They’re also making phone calls up.

Problem: Do Elon Musk be interested in expanding his expanding collection and possibly transforming it into a success with a particular left-of-center cable news network?

Just as the Chicago Tribune “blundered” with its famous article, all the financial authorities mocked and derided Musk when he bought Online for$ 44 billion:” What a nincompoop! He changed Twitter’s title to X and advertising revenue plummeted! It was overpriced when he bought it, and now it’s almost meaningless”!

Elon Musk, however, was playing the long match.

Only two years, in my opinion, the shortest longer game in social history!

With X as a core defender of free speech, immediately the buffoons at Facebook and Google/YouTube were n’t therefore quick to delete traditional information. Other voices— and alternative media — jumped to the vanguard. It was a completely new sport. &nbsp,

When Musk bought Twitter on April 14, 2022, we did n’t realize it at the time, but it was one of the most consequential decisions of our lifetime.

Think I’m exaggerating? Ponder this: Donald Trump’s greatest Marketing homerun during the presidential campaign was appearing on Joe Rogan’s radio. It received nearly 50 million views on YouTube, million more on Spotify, X-Menu, and other things. &nbsp,

Trump’s victory on those audiobooks was aided by its appearance on them. &nbsp,

But in the season, Trump disputed the effects of the 2020 vote. Only four years ago, YouTube would’ve banned the season for “disinformation”! It would’ve been stricken from life — merely like news stories about Hunter Biden’s computer!

Yet in 2024, deplatforming Joe Rogan was n’t even an option. Why? because Elon Musk, his friend, was with him. Often, all it takes is one chief to buck the sea and remain strong. When it comes to free talk, Musk is that head.

This estimate says it all:

Elon is such a stupid. He only had access to all three federal government branches after spending$ 44 billion on Twitter.

And now he has an option to do something even more absurd: MSNBC, the lunatic left’s preferred news system, is for sale. Comcast, its parent company, is looking to unload the channel, which ( not so coincidentally ) also has the oldest median age in cable news: 71.

In the aftermath of a Donald Trump flood success, MSNBC’s early results are horrible: Its popularity has plunged by 54 %.

But what is the actual value of MSNBC?

I asked my all-knowing AI assistant ( shout-out to ChatGPT ) for a valuation. Here’s what it said ( after a whole bunch of boring stuff ):” With these factors in mind, a reasonable estimate for MSNBC alone could range from$ 2 billion to$ 5 billion”.

Which bag shift does Elon Musk receive?

Imagine a Musk-controlled MSNBC’s ability for troll. When he transfers Rachel Maddow for Alex Jones, can you even picture the liberals shrieking in evil?

For$ 2 to$ 5 billion, I think he’d do it.

And besides, Musk’s Super News Broadcasting Company has a great ring to it.

Would it, Elon! Get MSNBC!
