AT&T Mulling Sell-Off Of Major Assets Under Turner After Time Warner Merger (CNN, TMZ)

Deadline Hollywood ^ | 8/4/2017 | Anita Busch and David Lieberman

Newsweak sold for $1, so I assume that CNN may be worth at least $2.

I’ll buy it and turn it into a real news organization. I’ll have to fire everyone, but hey, can’t make an omelette without breaking eggs.

Are those ‘thigh boots’???????? Geesh.

Maybe CBS will shut down its news operation if it buys CNN. It would make sense. “Tiffany Network” my ass....

[Cololeo]

And way back when the world made sense, Bell Telephone was too big and had to be broken up.

Way to go Dallas!

(If you are unsure what this means, AT&T hq is in the Big D)

(It’s also one of my favorite lines in The Hunt for Red October)

:-D

[Vision Thing]

Rush and Donald Jr would have way too much fun controlling CNN. They should do it!

[xzins]

Probably. The ISIS network

[a fool in paradise]

As all of these corporate monopolies tie up communication and cultural assets (recorded history), the day is coming that the ChiComs or someone else who isn’t friendly to the past but has available money and a desire for messaging will buy it and shelve (or destroy) much of it.

Mao did it to his own nation’s history.

[ConservaTeen]

I’d buy it...I have $23.56 or would that be to much for it??
