Donald Trump Jr. and Elon Musk have once again stirred the pot on social media, this time trolling major news outlets CNN and MSNBC following reports of layoffs and potential sales of the media giants. Reacting to Wall Street Mav’s tweet that Comcast is putting MSNBC up for sale and CNN is facing significant layoffs, Trump Jr. posted, “Hey @elonmusk I have the funniest idea ever!!!”
Musk, known for his playful and often controversial presence on Twitter, responded with his own sarcastic remark: “How much does it cost?” The back-and-forth exchange has drawn attention, especially given the ongoing turmoil within these media companies, which have faced criticism for their coverage of President-elect Donald Trump. The billionaire duo’s playful jabs come as the companies are grappling with the fallout from their business model, which has been criticized for sensationalism and biased reporting.
This trolling incident highlights the ongoing tension between mainstream media outlets and outspoken figures in the business and political world, particularly as the media giants struggle to navigate significant financial and reputational challenges.
