It is over. That fat dweeb, Barr, who pledged his allegiance to Nixon while in a Catholic elementary school, won't be indicting Trump. Now it is up to the voters to decide in November 2020 what happens next.

Just a few years ago, big media companies were falling over themselves to bet on Vice Media. Disney made the biggest bet, by putting more than $400 million into the swashbuckling digital publisher.

Now, Disney says all of the money it put into Vice has been incinerated: In investor filings Wednesday, Disney said it no longer thinks it will ever get any return on the investment it made in Vice — a company that at one point was supposedly worth $5.7 billion.

There never was anything to indict him on, and everybody knew it, and that was never the purpose of the Witch Hunt Fishing Expedition.

The purpose was to get dweebs like you all riled up, ranting on tangential spurs.

When it is done is when you delusionals stop ranting and raving about it.

(From Wikipedia)

Quote:

Vice News (stylized as VICE News) is Vice Media, Inc.'s current affairs channel, producing daily documentary essays and video through its website and YouTube channel. It promotes itself on its coverage of "under-reported stories".[1] Vice News was created in December 2013 and is based in New York City, though it has bureaus worldwide.


The rest of the article: It talks about a trend of digital media companies losing valuation in recent times. Although I don't see the reason why you cited this article in response to my post, it doesn't surprise me that you
would cherry-pick something that may, at first glance, be considered negative
unless, of course, someone takes the time to read the article in it's entirety. Still though, it was a "nice try."

I asterisked (*) below a section of the article that illustrates the main theme: namely that large media conglomerates paid "beaucoup" (bookoo) bucks for digital media outlets speculating that they would be worth a lot more in the future because of their potentially reaching millions of young people in
the know.

These tech-savvy digital media companies, it was once thought, would be the proverbial goose that laid the golden egg. Companies like Univision, Comcast and Disney spent hundreds of millions, and were willing to spend as much as billions to obtain these properties. They all lost money. Digital sites like Gawker, The Onion, Vox and Buzzfeed. But Disney did not lose money in the move it made in "writing off" their investment into Vice Media/Vice News, so don't worry your little head about them. Neither did Vice News and others. Vice Media co-founder Shane Smith is a billionaire, so "don't cry for me Argentina."

Just so people know how others fared (although it has nothing to do with why I posted Vice News' reading of The Mueller Report):

Mic: which raised more than $60 million, sold for less than $5 million late last year.
Mashable: which was valued at about $250 million in 2016, sold for less than $50 million in 2017.
Gawker Media, plus the Onion and other sites, just sold for a price that’s likely well below $50 million.

There's more, but that's all I have for now. Thanks for the cite. Enjoy the rest of the show.

Vice is still worth something, in some investors’ eyes. Last week, a group of lenders said they put a fresh round of $250 million into the company.

But Disney’s accounting decision is yet another example — perhaps the most stunning one — of the turnabout we’ve seen in digital media over the past few years. Investors have decided that high-flying publishers that once confidently explained that they’d created a new media paradigm are now worth very little ... or even less.

Here’s a partial roll call familiar to some of you:

*Mic, which raised more than $60 million, sold for less than $5 million late last year.
Mashable, which was valued at about $250 million in 2016, sold for less than $50 million in 2017.
The properties formerly known as Gawker Media, plus the Onion and other sites, just sold for a price that’s likely well below $50 million; Univision, the TV conglomerate which sold them off, had paid $135 million for the Gawker sites alone in 2016.*

We don’t (yet) know the value that Comcast, which put a collective $600 million into Vox Media (which owns this site), and BuzzFeed over the past few years, now thinks those two publishers are worth. But it’s a reasonable bet that Comcast thinks they are worth less than it thought in 2015.
All of those companies have different stories and different particulars. The through-line is that a few years ago, all of them were confident that they were going to shoot up in va

All I can say is that I'd bet you'd be very hard pressed to find another 2 year time frame in American history where more politicians and bureaucrats have either quit, resigned, got fired and/or arrested.

Any time it happens, it brings a smile to my face. Doesn't matter what side they were on.

If Trump never delivers on a single other campaign promise, the swamp is being drained.
