Comcast Looking to Sell MSNBC as Ratings Collapse

November 13, 2024 — bunkerville

Wouldn’t it be grand if Elon swooped in and picked up MSNBC? Comcast is looking for a way to stop the bleeding on their balance sheet. With over a $100 Billion in debt, we aren’t just talking a little scratch. Just before the election the rumors from reliable sources indicated that Comcast was looking to find a way out.

Right Scoop gives us the latest numbers:

It was reported last night that MSNBC ratings have completely cratered since President-elect Trump won the election and this comes amid news that Comcast is ready to get rid of the network to the highest bidder.

Here’s the ratings report from Fox News anchor Liz MacDonald:

Major Nielsen ratings plunge at MSNBC since Trump won, practically every day since.
Just one example – 10/30 Wednesday vs Fri 11/8 –

  • Morning Joe 1st hour – down 39.6%
  • Morning Joe 2d hour – down 36.9%
  • Andrea Mitchell – down 39.7%
  • Ari Melber – down 49.6%
  • Joy Reid’s Reidout – down 54.6%
  • All-in w Chris Hayes – down 47.2%
  • Alex Wagner Tonight- down 53.6%
  • Lawrence O’Donnell – down 60.6%
  • Stephanie Ruhle – down 67%

Looks like it may be bye bye to Joe and Mika. Throw in Rachael Maddow.

The total debt on the Comcast balance sheet as of September 2024 : $101.36 Billion USD. According to Comcast’s latest financial reports the company’s total debt is $101.36 Billion USD. A company’s total debt is the sum of all current and non-current debts.

  • Comcast’s total debt was $101.36 billion, with total liabilities of $183.33 billion and total shareholder’s equity of $85.77 billion.  

     
  • Shareholder equity
    As of December 31, 2022, Comcast’s total shareholders equity was $80.9 billion, which was less than its net debt of $91.2 billion.
     
     

Similar to other pay TV operators, Comcast lost a substantial number of subscribers in recent years. In the second quarter of 2024, the company recorded about 13.2 million pay TV subscribers, down by nearly two million in just one year. As ofJul 24, 2024.

The second part of the video discuses the huge Google fine.

Rachel Maddow Gets Inside Trump Trial; ‘Trump Miserable and Annoyed’

April 23, 2024 — bunkerville

After being a fly on the courtroom wall for the first day of Donald Trump’s hush money trial, Rachel Maddow remarked how the former president looks “thinner than I’ve seen him in the past” but “considerably older” and “like a man who is miserable to be here.”

And so with that we get the inside scoop of how things are going for the Orange man.

We would be foolish if we thought the media would give the trial of the Donald a fair shake in their interpretation of what is going down.

Better yet, she is proud that she got strings pulled to get in. It tells us all we need to know.

“Maddow pulled some strings to be in the Manhattan courtroom where the state of New York is presenting its election interference case, which revolves around hush-money payments made to adult film star Stormy Daniels.”

“Thanks to everybody at NBC who made it possible for me to get into the courtroom,” Maddow said Monday on MSNBC. “I realize it’s a hot ticket and it’s a privilege to cover something this historic.”

From where she was sitting, Maddow described Trump’s affect as “inert” and “slump-shouldered,” in addition to “old, tired and mad.” She didn’t see him as “particularly animated,” but more “annoyed, resigned, or angry even.”

“(Defense attorney Todd) Blanche, in fact, advanced a whole counterfactual: ‘You know, those invoices from Michael Cohen were really about legal retainer for his for his legal services, and there was no sexual encounter between Donald Trump and Stormy Daniels,’” Maddow continued.

“All of these other sort of counter-narratives that might explain the evidence that again, were not just connecting the dots — that were kind of a baroque, detailed, elaborate story with a lot of emotion attached to it, that the jury was expected, I think, to buy into as much with their heart as with their minds. So a much more cerebral, simple case from the prosecution.

Phil Mudd blasts ‘snitch’ a whistleblower who filed a complaint over Trump phone call

September 20, 2019 — bunkerville

 

Schumer is aware that our government is run by a rogue agency. A politician has no problem threatening a sitting president on national T.V. Recall the interview with Schumer and Maddow?

Maddow asks “What do you think they will do?”  Schumer “I don’t know. The intelligence community is very upset.”  Well I guess we know now.

While Schumer may have seemed tickled in this clip with his astute observation, Phil Mudd who was a CIA and FBI official blows a gasket with CNN Cuomo. Videos.

President Elect Donald Trump sent a tweet on January 3rd 2017. The following is US Senator of NY Chuck Schumer’s response. That “the intelligence has 6 ways to Sunday of getting back at you [Trump].”

Chuck also stated that Donald was being very dumb to treat the “intelligence community” the way he was.

Dumb? Or was he willing to try and take them on?

 

Now we have come full circle.

Sept 19, 2019 | Phil Mudd – I am about ready to blow a gasket

CNN analyst Phil Mudd blasted an unidentified intelligence community official as a “snitch” Wednesday for reportedly filing a complaint against President Donald Trump over an alleged phone call with a foreign leader.

During an interview with CNN’s Chris Cuomo, Mudd, a former FBI and CIA official, responded to a report from The Washington Post about a mysterious whistleblower complaint that involved a call in which Trump made a “promise” to his foreign counterpart.
