DOJ Demands SALE of CNN

[airplanemechanic]

CNN is still on the air?

Who knew?

Well, technically no. CNN is not a broadcast network, so they have nothing "on the air."

Sorry, that's the Ham radio operator in me.

We'll see what happens on appeal.

From what I can see, there's no reason to deny the sale, other than Trump's butthurt.

From what you see, the globalists should keep marching on and have full control of the narrative.

I don't believe that it is constitutional for the government to interfere with an organization that is most certainly cataegorized as the "press". Everyone here on USMB knows that I'm no lover or supporter of CNN and liberal filth either. This is bizarre. The DOJ interjecting itself in a media affair is almost as confusing as congressman asking twitter and facebook to censor the alt-right on CSPAN last week.

I think you're confusing freedom of speech with trusts. It's pretty well been established that the government has the right to break up trusts. None of that means that CNN will stop the presses.
