Report: Trump looking to buy a media company
The New York Times reports what Trump really wants to do after November, and it isn’t sitting in the Oval Office.
Click here for reuse options!In recent months, Mr. Trump and his son-in-law, Jared Kushner, have quietly explored becoming involved with a media holding, either by investing in one or by taking one over, according to a person close to Mr. Trump who was briefed on those discussions.
At a minimum, the campaign’s homestretch offers Mr. Trump, who has begun to limit his national media appearances to conservative outlets, an opportunity to build his audience and steer his followers toward the combative Breitbart site. Even before announcing the staff shake-up, Mr. Trump intensified his criticism of the mainstream news media in a speech on Tuesday night in which he declared that he was running against the “media-donor-political complex.”

I wanted to put up Eddie Murphy’s Mr. Robinsons neighborhood, it is hilarious but I can’t find a link for it, it’s like they want to keep it out of usage.

NBC controls all the SNL stuff, so you won’t find it on Youtube. This should work.

Nope, just gave me a bunch of pics. Thanks for trying.
Tommie August 19th, 2016 at 23:06
Worked for me, the episode was about a baby left on the front porch!

It’s hard to know what Rump intends to really do because he lies or distorts just about everything. One thing for sure…he’s gonna lose the election because everything he has said or done is catching up to him and blowing up in his face….
whatthe46 August 19th, 2016 at 18:00
so, tRump wants to start his own hate media supported by nazi wannabes and the kkklowns, with his jewish son-in-law. okay, um…
crc3 August 19th, 2016 at 18:09
That’s bound to go bad for sure!
whatthe46 August 19th, 2016 at 18:15
and i’m praying it will. grab the damn pop corn jimmy! this is getting better by the minute.

Trump is building his cult of Hate so he can use them with his New Media Network- Trump News (the more Extreme Fox News).
Lara August 19th, 2016 at 18:20
100% accurate.
Larry Schmitt August 19th, 2016 at 18:03
Looking for another business he can run into the ground.
dogsRgoodpeople August 19th, 2016 at 18:56
Exactly , cult followings are just what a narcissist desires .
dogsRgoodpeople August 20th, 2016 at 15:00
Hey, this was suppose to be down one at Persons post. me bad
Suzanne McFly August 19th, 2016 at 18:41
He is looking to fill the hole roger ailes left empty? Well if someone is a big enough a$$ to fill that gaping hole, it is rump.
whatthe46 August 19th, 2016 at 18:52
and the suits will come a flying.
nola878 August 19th, 2016 at 19:23
If he does start a media company, wonder how many investors will lose their money? And how much will don the con ride off into the sunset with?
Tommie August 19th, 2016 at 22:59
Spewing hate will bring in the numbers, Trump might actually make a profit on this! Imo!
whatthe46 August 19th, 2016 at 23:57
not really. he won’t get the sponsorship he would need. and we know he won’t use his own money.
Tommie August 20th, 2016 at 00:17
He will probably get the same sponsors that Fox News gets!
whatthe46 August 20th, 2016 at 00:48
i don’t think so sweetie. fox is a bunch of things, but, to have the hate filled rhetoric that tRump would promote with the kkklowns at the helm and the promotion of violence, do you think Kellogg’s or Johnson & Johnson or any serious name brands will want to support that? i think not. we know how to boycott a brand, and these investors don’t want to lose money because of tRump.
Gary Parillo August 20th, 2016 at 01:01
Remington,colt45,smith&wesson,and funeral homes?
Tommie August 20th, 2016 at 01:14

Tommie August 20th, 2016 at 03:54

Just what the world needs , another news site for the right wingnuts
R.f. Burns August 19th, 2016 at 20:08
He could take over IHeart media for pennies on the buck!

“what Trump really wants to do after November, and it isn’t sitting in the Oval Office.”-Thanks for keeping (D) America and the Earth Great!

Tommie August 19th, 2016 at 22:58
I think if Trump gets a media station it will be worse than Fox News (if that is possible)! That will also take down some of Fox’s numbers since there will be another source for right wing news!
Gary Parillo August 19th, 2016 at 23:49
Some news sources are already connecting the dots.Roger Ailes former fox king,Stephen Brannon the king of breitbart,and donny trump,king of the world,have combined with the possible result of building a right wing media conglomerate that will make fox look left wing by comparison!First donny has to lose the election, then a super right wing monstrosity will be born out of the ashes of a failed (hopefully) presidential run.
whatthe46 August 20th, 2016 at 00:06
here’s his problem. he will not get the sponsorship he needs. ads will not run on his station for their blatant hypocrisy and racism. unless he spends his money on a “PBS” type station, where it’s commercial free, it’ll flop.
Gary Parillo August 20th, 2016 at 00:48
Im not so sure about that whatthe,look what that pig Ailes did with fox.And hes mega rich with a chip on his shoulder against fox.And that Bannon is supposed to be king of the shrewd ones.Combined with backing from rwnj evangelical media savy people like Pat Robertson,and donnys cult following it could be possible.I hope Im wrong and your right though,our country already is under constant right wing media bombardment.
whatthe46 August 20th, 2016 at 00:52
i get what you’re saying, but with so many already breaking ties with tRump his brand is death. Macy among others want nothing to do with him. read my post below to Tommie, money means too much to others just as much to tRump, they won’t take the chance.
Gary Parillo August 20th, 2016 at 00:59
I dont know,all three are risk takers.But your right,money is their only purpose in life and their god.
Tommie August 20th, 2016 at 00:18
Makes sense!
Gary Parillo August 20th, 2016 at 00:52
Thats a powerful combination of media savy people with an evil agenda and more money than they know what to do with.

He will soon be hiring Sarah Salad Palin, as she was such a booming success with her tv ventures.
Duck Dynasty, also too, somehow a combination of faux gold chairs, swamps, saying nasty stuff to women, immigrants, et al, shooting critters, and trailer park decor would garner a yuuuuuuuge audience.
