  1. they haven't been looking to change FCC rules for 22 years. And trump hasn't been president for 22 years. And free speech was mandated until now. other than that, nothing. perhaps you should be studying afib rhythm strips.
  2. Gee, I wonder why... Search Assist Sinclair Broadcast Group is currently exploring merger options for its broadcast business, which could lead to significant changes in its operations. This review comes amid a broader push for deregulation in the broadcast industry, potentially allowing for more mergers and acquisitions. CNBC Sinclair Broadcast Group Merger Overview Sinclair Broadcast Group is currently exploring merger options for its broadcast business. This strategic review could lead to significant changes in the company's structure and operations. Current Status of Sinclair's Business Broadcast Stations: Sinclair operates 178 TV stations across 81 markets, affiliated with major networks like ABC, NBC, and CBS. Financial Performance: The company reported a decline in total revenue and advertising revenue in recent quarters, prompting the need for strategic changes. Market Capitalization: Sinclair's market capitalization is approximately $875 million, with an enterprise value exceeding $4.3 billion. Potential Merger Details Strategic Review: Sinclair has received board approval to explore merger options and has engaged in discussions with potential partners. Deregulation Impact: The current political climate, particularly under the Trump administration, may facilitate mergers and acquisitions in the broadcast industry, as the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) is considering deregulation. Future Prospects: While discussions are ongoing, there is no guarantee that a merger will occur. The company is also considering spinning off its ventures unit, which includes the Tennis Channel. Implications of a Merger Market Influence: A merger could enhance Sinclair's influence in the broadcast market, especially as it navigates the challenges of declining pay-TV subscriptions. Regulatory Approval: Any merger would require FCC approval, which may involve changes to existing ownership rules. Sinclair's strategic moves are closely watched as they could reshape the landscape of local broadcasting in the U.S.
  3. I guess McNeil healthcare didn't pay the protection money. or trump is the Manchurian candidate. Or both...
  4. did you notice I said he f'ed us? Do you think maybe the current admin is hiding something about trump's health excepting baldness?
  5. I voted for Biden. There was no other reasonable choice. he was the only primary candidate that could beat trump in 2020. And he did. Soundly. I would think your nihilism re all things politics would allow you to understand that: the lesser of evils by far. It's a constant argument of yours: Everyone is corrupt so the latest outrageous actions aren't a big deal. Didn't your mother ever say "If everyone else jumped over Niagara Falls, would you?" answer in 100 words or less.
  6. Both. I hate the regime, not the ordinary people.
  7. i've told you a zillion times that Biden f'ed all of us. Harris was wrong to pick walz. I like him but he wasn't to many voters taste. Are you an alpha? I've been told I am. Sinclair owns most of my local stations. I rarely watch any now. that won't change.
  8. don't exaggerate. i've told you a billion times, anti Israel and anti Jew are not the same thing.
  9. Why should he? He was cancelled and vilified. Unless he spends like an NBA star, he's extremely wealthy. Set for life. Maybe he should be concerned about being poisoned, deported or imprisoned.
  10. I don't know. Nero was pretty bad but he's getting close.
  11. maybe you should do a search before you make yourself look even more ignorant. So do you believe him? Are you ok if he succeeds? https://www.cbsnews.com/news/what-trump-has-said-about-pursuing-a-third-term/
  12. So you don’t believe him when he promises a 3rd term?
  13. It was merely about less people dying from covid for me.
  14. I don’t know you but I suspect that’s true. Good for you for stating a truism.
  15. Well, ABC seems to believe there are more that care than those that don’t or at least believe that those that care spend more and/or are more appealing to advertisers It’s “doc”!
  16. People who care about free speech spoke with their wallets. Disney listened. Ya think they didn’t measure the financial effect of alienating MAGAs over normal people?
  17. Trump’s approval was 37% this month. I’d wager many of the 63% care about his attack on free speech. His lying about ratings will only matter to a few. The populace has proven that they will largely tolerate his lies.
  18. Stop digging. You posted that clip in reference to Kimmel and doubled down. Now you’re trying to retreat. Not happening oh, and your link confirms 110 k as attendance so you were only off by 2.9m
  19. I thought it was about ratings. Didn’t trump tell us it was?
  20. It’s called sarcasm. Sorry it was over your head. Neither were about ratings although in the Facebook case, no one claimed that. I thought nurse ratchet could help you argue.
  21. Please post something that shows the London protest was about Kimmel. It was called Unite the Kingdom. And the police estimated 100-150k. Did Kirk have dual citizenship with the uk? https://fullfact.org/culture-and-society/3-million-unite-the-kingdom/
  22. I think both were entirely about ratings…where is Florence nightingale when you need her?
  23. No, but I also wouldn’t falsely suggest that a video of a march for this was actually for Kirk.
  24. This appears to be a protest In London with he slogan “who’s streets, our streets”. Charming
