Reuters published a fun "make your own Trump TV" web gizmo that lets you attempt to balance the budget on the venture to see if it would be profitable: http://fingfx.thomsonreuters.com/gfx/breakingviews/1/235/285/index.html?utm_source=twitter&utm_medium=Social But the web-thing above is predicated on monthly OTT subscriptions - certainly not a proposition that's bundled into a regular cable package. And I must admit that I don't see a web-only proposition as working for him. It would exist in its own world for its own supporters and not get the mainstream attention that Trump craves. And it might work as a business model, but I'm not sure that preaching to the choir is what Trump wants to do. Isn't that essentially the world of right wing talk radio hosts like Alex Jones? Incidentally, I learned most of what I know about Alex Jones from Jon Ronson, who's written a great Kindle short about Jones, the alt-right and Trump if that's your sort of thing: https://www.amazon.com/Elephant-Room-Journey-Campaign-Alt-Right-ebook/dp/B01LXOO7UQ Adam -- -- TV or Not TV ....
