Mark Cuban – Shares Perfect Platform To Buy If You Want To Connect With Baby Boomers
Mark Cuban may be a billionaire, but if he had a couple more billions, then he would be able to afford a couple more things. Like Fox News for starters.
When the ‘Shark Tank’ reality TV star was asked about the perfect means to reach baby boomers – a generation he chooses to refer to as the “Fox News generation” – he had one simple answer to give: buy Fox News.
“If I had enough money to do it, which I don’t, I’d buy it in a heartbeat,” Cuban, who sold his majority stake in the Dallas Mavericks NBA team earlier this year, added in his Wired interview.
Discussing how he can’t actually afford to buy Fox News despite his vast wealth – Forbes put him up for a solid $5.7 billion – he said, “You’ve got to pay at least 50 per cent premium. So now it’s $22 billion. And then you’ve got to make all the changes, so that’s another $2 billion,” he said. “You can sell some things off. So maybe it’s $15 billion, $20 billion net. I don’t have $15 or $20 billion in cash sitting around.”
This is not the first time that the billionaire investor has touched on the importance of Fox News. In a previous interview with the New York Times, he coined the term “Fox News Generation.” The “Fox News Generation,” he claims, is the generation that has gone from “sex, drugs and rock ‘n’ roll” to becoming people who “condemn Black Lives matters and watch Fox News in droves.”
He added: “It’s so upsetting to me. You have no idea.”[

Mark Cuban – Would Buy X In A Perfect World
Another platform that Mark Cuban would “for sure” buy is X, formerly known as Twitter. Cuban has openly shown his disapproval for how Musk is running the platform, so it’s not a wonder he’ll be putting in the money if Musk would ever consider selling.
“I wish I could. There’s no reason for him to sell it,” Cuban said. Well, guess fans waiting for X to be saved from the clutches of one Elon Musk would have to wait longer.
