The world’s most popular podcast host joined forces with the world’s richest man this week to determine how they could reinvent MSNBC if its parent company sells it off.
X owner Elon Musk joked this week he may buy the liberal news network and “The Joe Rogan Experience” host Joe Rogan chimed in, offering to replace MSNBC anchor Rachel Maddow on her show while adopting her signature look. .
“If you buy MSNBC, I would like Rachel Maddow’s job. I will wear the same outfit and glasses, and I will tell the same lies,” Rogan wrote on Friday in response to Musk’s post.
Musk trolled the outlet on Friday, sharing a post about reports that Comcast may sell off MSNBC.
Comcast on Wednesday officially announced it would spin off several NBCUniversal cable networks, including MSNBC, in a move that will dramatically shake up the landscape of legacy media as the liberal cable outlet will no longer be affiliated with NBC News.
The billionaire captioned the post with his own statement, writing, “The most entertaining outcome, especially if ironic, is most likely,” having fun with the idea of buying the liberal outlet and converting it to a conservative news outlet.
Rogan commented on Musk’s new post and offered to replace Maddow on the new MSNBC. The X owner replied, “Deal.”
