When Twitter became, in the opinion of some, a cesspool of progressiveness, it was Elon Musk who stepped in to purchase the company and set it on a new path.
And now, with word that MSNBC is for sale, it may again be the Tesla and Space X CEO who steps in to change the culture.
A simple five words from the billionaire set the Internet ablaze after he spoke to Donald Trump Jr. about the cable company.
It started when Wall Street Mav posted on X, formerly Twitter, that MSNBC was likely going to be for sale.
“Comcast is putting MSNBC up for sale. CNN just announced massive layoffs coming. Maybe the new owners will figure out that lying non-stop to your audience is a lousy business model,” they said.
The president-elect’s son quoted the post with his own in which he said “Hey @elonmusk I have the funniest idea ever!!!”
And that is when the billionaire responded and started a firestorm of speculation on his own X app.
How much does it cost?” he asked.
That triggered a ton of responses from many prominent voices, including podcaster Joe Rogan, with many of them vying for Rachel Maddow’s job as a host
One response came from Trump Jr. himself who said “I mean it can’t be much. Look at the ratings.”
“If you buy MSNBC I would like Rachael Maddow’s job. I will wear the same outfit and glasses, and I will tell the same lies,” Rogan said.
