Perhaps @theonion.com could next take a run at buying the @nytimes.com just as they bought Info Wars with the same goal: Catch, spike and kill

jillaroo2020.bsky.social•106 days ago

Now that would AMAZING!!!

dontvotesplit.bsky.social•106 days ago

Could you start with Rebel News and True North, thanks

saskboy.bsky.social•104 days ago

Problem is they need to go bankrupt first, so the money won't go to Levant or Lawton.

gothbear.bsky.social•105 days ago

Oh please do it. It would be the funniest thing for us.🇨🇦

ashvalewrites.bsky.social•106 days ago

please LMAO

sophiafhc.bsky.social•104 days ago

Where's the Go Fund Me link?

joehuiras.bsky.social•106 days ago

Maybe y'all could buy the Rubin report or something?

jemmscee.bsky.social•105 days ago

You can have what I had been paying to the Chronicle Herald.

greenglassworm.bsky.social•105 days ago

I was going to say Rebel is closer to InfoWars than Postmedia but... is it?

hirider750.bsky.social•105 days ago

Please don't toy with me. It's been a rough month.

casualcacti.bsky.social•105 days ago

Brilliant!

pickleballpat.bsky.social•105 days ago

Damn... you beat me to it. I was just going to suggest the Sun and National Post.
They can't be worth much anyway, so let's get on this toot sweet

krikket177.bsky.social•105 days ago

Yes, this is a great idea.

hugh258.bsky.social•105 days ago

Dudes: I'll cheerfully contribute to that!

kmckmom.bsky.social•103 days ago

Daydreaming on that

grtl8ker.bsky.social•106 days ago

LOL - can't wait!

prairiegirl.bsky.social•106 days ago

That's worth a few bucks

judymylove.bsky.social•106 days ago

Oh yes yes yes!

douglasthew.bsky.social•105 days ago

Couldn't give a rat's ass about Post, but if you make it Rebel Media, you've got a deal.

sailing-infidels.bsky.social•104 days ago

Great idea. I will be watching 😜

brojangles007.bsky.social•103 days ago

Do it for the bit

ylbjo.bsky.social•103 days ago

😅😅too bad The Beaverton is parody. I would LOVE an NP owned by the Beaverton. I would subscribe to the actual printed paper. 😅😅

karmaseesu.bsky.social•106 days ago

Seriously! That would cover a good deal of Canadian media and the biased misinformation machine! If only!

aroun.bsky.social•106 days ago

Oh man, then you could inherit those sweet, sweet subsidies!

opheodrys.bsky.social•104 days ago

And give @deadder.bsky.social back his job!

thebeaverton.com•106 days ago

There are smaller media properties we could buy with the billions of dollars we assume will soon flood into our Patreon, but we've chosen Postmedia because we think it would be a greater good to buy and dismantle a rightwing news organization most people have actually heard of.

dontvotesplit.bsky.social•106 days ago

So you won't buy out that weirdo Spencer Fernando, got it

judyspool.bsky.social•106 days ago

Not sure what's going on with Spencer Fernando lately. He is pro Canada supporting Ukraine, unlike his Dear Leader.

Is he going Red Tory or
something?

dontvotesplit.bsky.social•105 days ago

I don't know, I make a point of never reading his schlock 🙂

judyspool.bsky.social•105 days ago

I saw it by accident on twitter last week🤔

dontvotesplit.bsky.social•105 days ago

😀

iosegun.bsky.social•106 days ago

But you have a chance to buy Rebel and make it stand for rebellion rather than shilling for the rich

krismorris.bsky.social•106 days ago

That’s a low blow, man. Nice.

laparka.bsky.social•105 days ago

before you dismantle everything you should at least see how long you can torment joe warmington before he goes nuts. let him write whatever he wants and then change around all the pronouns before printing
