lol.... The most biased network there is MSNBC.

And their leading mouthpiece who spread more propaganda than Tokyo Rose has her salary slashed 5M

Rumor has it Musk and Trump are considering purchasing MSNBC. That would be comedy gold!

=======================

A source with knowledge disputed that Maddow’s haircut was for $5 million, but would not say how much less she will be earning.

The pay reduction comes as panic engulfed MSNBC’s 30 Rock headquarters in Midtown, as The Post reported, over Comcast’s plan to spin off its cable channels by the end of 2025.

Splitting off MSNBC from NBC News could force the cable channel to change its name, logo and headquarters, and may lead to layoffs.

Maddow’s new deal will keep her in the anchor chair on Monday nights, and allow her to produce podcasts and documentaries, the Ankler reported.

The network also plans to use her as a “secret weapon” on other shows when there’s breaking news, the outlet added.

You have no idea how amusing this post is, coming from someone who routinely posts Zero Hedge.

It's also amusing that Robert Murdoch's NYPost chooses to gloat over his Fox News' rival.
 
Comcast, in general, is restructuring. Including breaking off cable broadcast networks from its overall umbrella. Focusing more on streaming vs. cable - as the cable market is shrinking while the streaming market is growing as more and more Americans move towards streaming vs. traditional cable offerings.

Maddow’s next contract will have different terms and be for $25M vs. $30M…but have additional contracting for streaming as a separate (and additional) compensation.

Comedy gold is having the head of state of a nation buy and operate a media outlet?

Wow.

I knew you were totalitarian-curious, but I didn’t expect you to go full totalitarian.

Never go full totaliatian.

Seems like the old adage of "Go woke, go broke" still holds true. Let's hope that when Musk or Trump buys MSNBC they put Tucker Carlson on again. And Dan Bongino. I think Candace Owens should have a slot too. And wouldn't it be great to have Trump on once a week doing something like at his rallies? 3 non-stop hours of Trump getting his message out. To remain fair and unbiased, they can put The View on at 3am.

Comcast is ditching MSNBC because cable broadcast channels is a shrinking demographic and profit center.

Musk has the money to play with, so let him buy it if he wants. He wasted plenty on Twitter and overpaid for it. Let him overpay for MSNBC.

Other than sports or tuning in for particular news events? I can’t say I know anyone under the age of 50 that even watches cable regularly.

So $25 m instead of $30 m for being on once a week and when something important is happening. I'll bet she can live on that. And since you seem to think it's funny, how many million a year do you make?

I brought that up the other day when LWNJ's were hammering down on Musk.

No one was impressed.

The left thinks what MSNBC and the Washington Post tells them is reality and they still don't realize how big a propaganda network the corporate media is.
 
Good lord. The lack of knowledge on what's going on in news media is pretty comical.

The left usually have multiple psychological issues and for them the propaganda is better than reality. The DNC exploits this and offers them a religious experience where only the democrats can save them and the republicans are evil and want to kill them. Rachel Maddow, Joy Reid and the witches of The View are high priestesses. These priestesses tell the flock that Trump is the devil and everyone outside of the flock is in a Trump cult. Note to HS seniors thinking about career paths: Psychology will definitely surpass Gender Studies as the most important field of study, and there will be a massive shortage of psychologists to talk these leftists out of eventually drinking the DNC Kool-Aid.
