buy Fox News? 51% would be enough.

ON UPDATE: (Darn. Worth about 3 billion, she's probably not rich enough.)

1. +1, that would change a lot of things for the better no doubt

[lunamagica]

2. That would be the best thing that she (or anyone who could affoord it) could do to help fix the

nation and I'm not kidding here.

3. Or buy Twitter, just to cancel Trump's account.

You can sell it again as soon as he's out of office.

8. GO BETO!

4. tom steyer should do it

it will be the best return on the investment. And keep the staff but have them sing a different song. Imagine Hannity turns on reps and trump snd starts supporting dems, lol

5. He's worth less than 2 billion. (Vs. Oprah's 3.) So he couldn't afford it either.n/t

9. According to Fire and Fury..

Hannity almost left Fox to start a new cable channel with Ailes and O'Reilly because he felt Fox was moving away from him. He certainly wouldn't agree to change his toxic messaging.

6. Great idea!

7. She may not be wealthy enough but

could work towards a group who were and perhaps make it happen.

10. this deserves

a million recs

11. Now this is . . .

something I could support full-heartedly. Because Fox is 24/7 propaganda, no better than right-wing radio.

Think of a Fox-free world and how different our political discourse could be without the continuous distortions, the 'just beneath the surface' racism, sexism and ethnic resentments, the perpetuation of white nationalism and victimhood and the phony religiosity to act as camouflage.

That is something I could support.
