Trump really needs to stay out of these deals.

Why? Presidents have often voiced similar opinions - we might have been wise to listen to Ike’s warnings about the military-industrial complex, for example..

Sarah Sanders did not explicitly say that Trump supports the Disney-Fox deal, but did say that he believes it "could be a great thing for jobs." Reality check: Disney said in an investor call today that it expects to achieve $2 billion in "cost synergies" by 2021, which often is corporate-speak for layoffs.

I have been through a few mergers and acquisitions. They will cut jobs in a NY second. I have no idea what this "great thing for jobs" comment came from. Having said all that I am not necessarily opposed to such mergers but to characterize them as great for jobs is a bit naive.

Notice that no one on the Left is screaming about "big evil corporations" and their "fat profits."

I thought monopolies were illegal. And did I hear correctly...they’re buying movies and entertainment television? Is Murdoch keeping FOX News and FOX Business? Otherwise, there’s just OAN. And you can’t get that without Direct Tv in most markets.

There are simply too many news agencies and media companies in too few hands. Bust up the monopolies.

Going to read this later, to find out what people think of Disney buying Fox. Homosexual Agenda trying to regulate conservative minds?

Here is one of the predictions made by Hillary supporter Jim VandeHei:

Dear Conservatives: Politico’s Jim VandeHei Is Playing You for Suckers … AgainByJohn Nolte

@NolteNC
October 6, 2016

Jim VendeHei, the left-winger who co-founded the left-wing Politico, is up to his old tricks again, and conservatives must not fall for them again. You might personally like VandeHei, but don’t let that cloud the fact that he is a brilliant conman with a very specific playbook (if you’ll pardon the pun). Don’t forget that in 2006, he ran this playbook on y’all and we all fell for it — and the results were catastrophic.
