Right-wing news network OAN Earns 90% of its Revenue through CNN owner AT&T: Telecoms giant suggested setting the pro-Trump news station up, and even offered to buy 5% stake in it, court papers claim

CNN's owner AT&T is responsible for 90 per cent of controversial right-wing network One America News's revenue, it has been revealed.

OAN derives nine tenths of its income - which has not been disclosed - by receiving a cut of subscription revenue from satellite broadcaster DirecTV, which broadcasts it to tens of millions of homes.

The DirecTV deal also means OAN does not have to rely as heavily on advertiser revenue, meaning it has less to fear from woke mobs who've targeted other broadcasters' advertisers, including those seen on Fox News, in a rage over the network's conservative content.

AT&T also helped build controversial right-wing news network One America News by suggesting its creation, then offered to buy a five per cent stake in it in October of 2013, and allowing OAN to lobby in favor of a buy-up that triggered antitrust concerns.

OAN founder and chief executive Robert Herring Sr. has testified that the inspiration to launch OAN in 2013 came from AT&T executives.

'They told us they wanted a conservative network,' Herring said during a 2019 deposition seen by Reuters. 'They only had one, which was Fox News, and they had seven others on the other side. When they said that, I jumped to it and built one.'

'Big RBG fan' Katie Couric Marks Another Former Nightly News Anchor who embraces liberal views

Former CBS, NBC anchors Dan Rather, Brian Williams are also outspokenly progressive

Former "CBS Evening News" anchor Katie Couric revealed in her new memoir that she was a "huge" fan of Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, so much so that she once edited out what she viewed to be a damaging interview answer for the late judge's progressive legacy.

It was the latest example of a major network news anchor revealing personally liberal politics, at a time when polls show alarmingly low trust by Americans in the media. Couric served as anchor of "CBS Evening News" from 2006 to 2011 after a 15-year stint at NBC's "Today."

Former "NBC Nightly News" anchor Brian Williams is now a left-wing host for NBC's liberal cable arm MSNBC, and former "CBS Evening News" anchor Dan Rather is an outspoken progressive who routinely rails against Republicans and conservatives on his Twitter feed.

That might just be because people who click on Fox News articles have a difficult time actually reading them.

Don't @ me. It's the obvious joke.
 
Malcomb X


Ahhh...ole MALCOLM X.

Check out what he had to say about the Democrats who so love their media and this thread....you will have to forgive me skipping around a bit....I had to leave out the parts where he calls all white folks " our enemies"...openly advocates violence as a means to somehow achieve "equality"...and outright lies about white colonial Americans "kidnapping" black folks from Africa and bringing them to the US....but anyway...since we talking bout the violent self described "muslim preacher" i figured his take on liberals and Dimwits was relevant....

...."any time you throw your power behind a policial party (Dimwits) that controls 2/3 of the government and they dont keep any of their promises to you....youre not just a chump. Youre a traitor to your race."

Malcolm X. 1964.


Yet dead azz Joe Biden just got 70% of the black vote...60 years later....after Trump had just brought about the lowest unemployment rates for minorities in US history...a booming economy full of growing small businesses and due to deregulation....and the black vote gets behind Clueless Joe and watches gas climb from $2 to $3 a gallon immediately...the economy slow to a crawl, worst inflation since the 1980s means groceries, diapers, beer, cars, housing....everything...is harder for working folks to afford than ever before ....

DONT ACT SURPRISED. Yall were told this would happen. It happens EVERY TIME you elect a career politician Dimwit snake oil salesman. Every. Damn. Time.

Since the speech in 1964. From Carter to Obama to Crooked ass Joe this exact same crap has happened. Failed Dimwit policy...massive unnecessary regulation...government overreach...and a terrible economy with runaway inflation.

Makes the rich even richer and buries the working poor. Yet yall fools vote for it again and again.

Somehow in the name of journalism, opinions are now favored over facts. Twitter caused the professional to lower their standards because of instant information and being scooped by anyone.

Meghan McCain credits ‘sisterhood’ with former Fox News colleagues for helping her through tough times

'I know what women supporting women looks like because I had it when I worked at Fox News,' McCain said on 'Hannity'

Bad Republican" author Meghan McCain credited her bond with former Fox News colleagues Janice Dean, Kennedy, Dagen McDowell and Kat Timpf for helping her through tough times, saying she knows what "women supporting women looks like" because of her experience at the network.

"Look, I worked at Fox News before I went to ‘The View’ and I probably would not have survived emotionally, the past five years of my life between my dad’s passing, and cancer, and everything I speak about in my memoir happening at ‘The View’ and other things in my personal life if it weren’t for the women that I met at Fox News," McCain said Tuesday night on "Hannity."

It marked her first TV interview since leaving the ABC News daytime talk show earlier this year.

Rachel Maddow Mocked for touting the power of the 'HuffPo front page treatment'

One person mocked, 'Oh no not the fearsome HuffPo front page treatment.'

MSNBC anchor Rachel Maddow faced mockery on Wednesday after suggesting the HuffPo front page headline is influential.

Maddow tweeted screenshot of a HuffPo headline about Democrat Sens. Kystren Sinema, Ariz., and Joe Manchin, W.Va., opposing tax increases in President Biden’s Build Back Better plan. The front page headline read "Demolition Duo: Have ‘Destroyed’ Every Option To Pay For Bill," referring to recent news that the proposed billionaires’ tax was removed from the bill.

Maddow pushed the headline writing "Manchin and Sinema getting the HuffPo front page treatment right now."

Twitter users were quick to mock the idea that "the HuffPo front page treatment" was influential or would hurt Sinema or Manchin.

"How will they ever recover from this?," contributor editor for The Spectator Stephen Miller tweeted.

Washington Free Beacon reporter Chuck Ross joked, "Oh no not the fearsome HuffPo front page treatment."

This article actually looks just as bad as a HuffPost article. "Somebody said something dumb, here's what people are saying about it in twitter."
