They are creating a new company to stuff them under. However, I can see the CEO and the Board of Directors sitting in a conference room thinking about dumping that problem child of theirs. I don\u2019t think Musk would be all that interested in the other channels, such as SyFy and USA that are also being spun off to the new company.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>While hiving off the streaming companies would not need FCC approval, there would still be some regulatory hurdles for any company to take over the broadcasters.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Part of that would be the usual antitrust issues. However, Elon Musk has no streaming services. Additionally, you will have a new administration that would look rather kindly on Elon\u2019s buying MSNBC.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>\u201cThere are only two media entities that Donald Trump dislikes more than CNN. One is MSNBC and the other is NBC,\u201d Craig Moffett, a media veteran and founder of media analysts MoffettNathanson told CNN.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Now the question is, will Elon Musk continue trolling with the help of Donald Trump Jr, or will he actually buy MSNBC? It will cost significantly less then his purchase of Twitter. Their ratings have been cratering since the election lowering their value. I would be surprised if he had to come up with more then $2 billion, if that much. (MSNBC is essentially worthless)<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/i.pinimg.com\/736x\/fb\/a9\/66\/fba966c239d7d39cce304f9312ab8283.jpg?resize=501%2C498&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"501\" height=\"498\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Now what would happen if Musk did buy MSNBC? I think it\u2019s a safe bet that there would be a few changes made. Rachael Madcow has already had to take a pay cut due to the collapsing ratings. Two others, MSNBC&#8217;s &#8220;Morning Joe&#8221; co-hosts Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski, who have been libeling President Trump, his team and all his supporters for years, went to Mar-a-lago, hat in hand to meet with president Trump. That set off the fan base and even more shut them off.<\/p>\n<p>If Musk were to decide to make an offer, he wold also need to have a management staff ready to step in. One suggestion was Infowar\u2019s Alex Jones taking over the spot of Rachael Madcow. Without question, a lot of the on air so called \u201cTalent\u201d would need to be shown the door. Seeing Joy Reid\u2019s response to being told her services were no longer required would be ratings gold for MXNBC.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter \" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/i.pinimg.com\/736x\/78\/25\/f5\/7825f55b039be3be5aa48dc61115bb37.jpg?resize=490%2C354&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"490\" height=\"354\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Will this actually happen? I honestly don\u2019t know. I wouldn\u2019t be surprised if some of Musk\u2019s M&amp;A people were doing some quiet research into the idea. The announcement of the sale would be epic, especially in the halls of MSNBC. Joy Reid might actually stroke out on the air.
