In a stunning move that has sent shockwaves through the media industry, billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk has acquired the American Broadcasting Company (ABC) for a reported $790 million.
The acquisition, finalized late last week, marks Musk’s latest foray into reshaping public discourse—but it’s his immediate decision to cancel the long-running talk show “The View” that has ignited fierce debate across the nation.
Musk, known for his polarizing presence and unapologetic approach, cited personal grievances as a driving force behind the cancellation.
Sources close to the tech mogul claim he was repeatedly insulted on air by the show’s hosts and guests, who frequently criticized his business ventures, political stances, and public behavior. In a fiery statement posted on X, Musk declared, “This toxic show needs to stop. It’s a cesspool of divisiveness and misinformation, and I won’t let it continue under my watch.”
This bold media move sparked commentary across multiple industries, including financial experts who noted the implications of a $790 million acquisition in today’s volatile market—especially when hospital costs and healthcare network investments continue to climb nationwide.
