This whole thing stinks like rotting fish.

Uhhh the NYT is owned by a right wing billionaire zionist and very close ally to Israel - the country currently doing a genocide on Palestine.

#cancelCBS

If there is any group of people who are a definitional hazard to society it's billionaires, and also social conservatives, hence their compatibility.

briefly, but not the fake FCC investigation or how the FCC has been weaponized against journalism

the skydance folks are already 100% already in there exerting control, the FCC finalization is just paperwork

The only ones- but it made me sad that you were one at all. I had expectations- I apologize for that -won’t happen again with NPR or any media agency

I loved NPR so much that I wrote a blog about it for almost 20 years. I haven't listened to them regularly since 2016.

Yeah but I usually am good about keeping track of the billionaire techbros' and their spawns' myriad of corporate projects, the bigger ones anyway. I guess it goes to show that even when you think you are fully paying attention some big details can still slip by.

HE WILL BE BACK.

The billionaire's club stick together and protect each other. It's a fraternity for vile old rich white men who want to use their wealth for power and control. No matter how heinous the act, they will band together, knowing that they will need the same protection in the future.

speaking of reich wing Billionaires

Who is the author?

The Ellisons/Skydance people are 100% already dictating things! All that's left is a handful of feckless CBS execs basically being told what to do! There are no longer any functioning regulators who'll enforce pre-deal meddling. The new ownership is 100% relevant!

You know what to do with CBS, folks. Tank 'em. Don't give them any time or ratings. They will be permanently "OFF" in my house when Colbert leaves. F*ck 'em,

Very relevant. The Ellison family can all go jump in a lake. They’re part of the billionaire class selling out our democracy so they can be a little more rich in the short term (even though recent history shows billionaires do better under dem presidents without psychotic trade wars)

Class solidarity.

harder sell because their ratings just hit a recent high, but I'm sure they can find a way

We studied the times in a university class, showing how they lied in reporting on unions, etc. I read it, but you are sure right, this would have been have been nice to read in there. I guess boycotting CBS is in order. Billionaires trying to make us think in their sick weird ways.

He doesn’t care if he destroys CBS and loses a couple hundred million, as long as he can keep republicans in power and avoid billions in taxes. Same with political donations, good investments for the oligarch class.

Pissed

The deal is done barring FCC approval, which is guaranteed. The Skydance people are 100% already in there dictating choices, and the only CBS execs left are feckless sycophants operating in fealty the incoming owners and trump

This boycott call enthusiastically is being answered based upon responses that I am getting to my posts. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Please redouble your efforts to get the word out. CBS and Paramount + soon will hear YOU.

Oh, @nytimes.com is bad at giving the whole truth, you say?

Well the NYT is also now owned by a right wing billionaire and very close political ally to Trump.

See you on Substack, Steven, or elsewhere. But I will see you.

I say bury CBS. There are more than enough alternatives out here.

Welcome to the new FOX News 2.0. Perhaps even one more compliant to Trump and the billionaires than the Murdochs.

He doesn’t own CBS yet.

#Paramount bsky.app/profile/real...

Gotta wonder, though. CBS, after destroying their credibility and viewer appeal with $16M settlement with Trump, 60 min resignation, and Colbert cancellation, is Skydance still interested in acquiring CBS? At the same price?

He’s got till May 2026. Go Stephen!!

Larry Ellison was allowed to purchase the island of Lana'i in the State if Hawai'i all for himself.

Now that is one hell of a puzzle piece.

OK, no debate, Larry Ellison's boy is fully responsible for CBS.

Both

Yes. They more or less kept the appearances, but that was it. Specially because for a long time MTV was the heart of their media empire.

Canceling Colbert may have been a move requested by the Trump administration in a power play during the acquisition approval process.

No, they aren't relevant any more. Its just a propaganda outlet now See what I did there?

Corpo medias gotta watch out for each other.

All the news that's fit to appease our billionaire overlords. 

I wouldn’t wipe my ass with the NYTimes bought off journalists just like ABC and NBC and all the other billionaire MSM soulless bootlickers 🤬 Love Colbert great show their loss I Hope Stephen finds a great new home. I’ll be watching I stand with Colbert he’s not a weak knee coward ✊🏻👊🏻✌🏻

Does anyone need CBS in their lives, or Paramount? I think I can live comfortably with neither.

An inconvenient truth.

FACIST TAKEDOWNS

This all reeks unbearably of the stench of cronyism and 1933 Germany.

that's reason enough to never watch it again but I've been never watching it again for some time now.

Let’s make Colbert’s rating go to the highest ever! Let Trump & CBS explain to the stockholders when dividends drop!
