    Almost immediately after buying it he killed a story about another wealthy friend’s dog who bit someone.

        Oh yes…

        Those amazing profit margins from…

        Print media and social media website that have literally never made a profit?

        With the amount of money they use to buy media conglomerates there are much better investment opportunities, this guy paid half a billion cash for and like another 90 million of assumed debt.

        Almost a sixth of the price was bills the company couldn’t pay because it’s unprofitable.
