FAIRLY UNBALANCED: As $71 Billion Dollar Disney Merger Deal Prepares To Finalize, Fox News Is Being Transformed Into A Progressive Liberal Platform

The Walt Disney Company’s $71.3 billion purchase of key 21st Century Fox properties will close on Wednesday, ushering in a Liberal new age for Fox News.

The Walt Disney Company’s $71.3 billion purchase of key 21st Century Fox properties will close on Wednesday, expanding Disney’s Hollywood holdings while creating a new Fox Corporation featuring a streamlined media portfolio focused on television and news assets.

Over the past week, two key events took place that will tell you everything you  need to know about what type of news outlet the new Fox station will be. First, Fox ordered that Conservative opinion show ‘Judge Jeanine‘ be dropped because she told the truth about Muslim congresswoman Rep. Ilhan Omar. The second thing that happened was the announcement that ultra-Liberal and former Democratic National Committee chief Donna Brazile would be getting her own show. Welcome to the “new” Fox News. Ugh…

Regular readers of NTEB were warned of the coming transition way back in 2017, when we warned you that Rupert Murdoch’s son James had plans to reinvent Fox News as a Liberal Progressive outlet. James Murdoch’s wife Kathryn is as anti-Trump as they come, and is a former employee of the now-defunct Clinton Foundation’s Climate Change program. At the time, James Murdoch was quoted as saying ““Fox News is an important brand, but it needs to develop, and, to some extent, be reformed,”. Well, looks like ‘reformation day’ has arrived.

R.I.P. Fox News, as you go the way of all flesh. You have truly and literally become a Mickey Mouse organization, I won’t be watching.

Fox, Disney prepare to close transformative $71.3 billion deal

FROM FOX BUSINESS: For Fox, the sale ushers in a new era for Rupert Murdoch, whose son Lachlan is poised to take the reins of the slimmed-down company — known as Fox Corporation — that will include Fox News, national Fox Sports channels and the Fox broadcast network. It’s also a return to the company’s roots: From a small Australian newspaper, Murdoch built a journalistic juggernaut that now includes The Wall Street Journal, New York Post, The Sun, The Australian and dozens of other newspapers.

For Disney, the purchase bolsters one of Hollywood’s most lucrative catalogs of intellectual property and caps off a pricey wave of purchases under the leadership of CEO Bob Iger, who could leave the media conglomerate in 2021 with the envious portfolio of Marvel Studios, Lucasfilm and Pixar — all combined with studio 20th Century Fox’s decades of content.

It also serves as a centerpiece of Disney’s newest offering: a streaming platform packed with what analysts call an unrivaled TV and film library poised to differentiate it from the slew of other rivals in a fiercely competitive new market. Alongside its own plans, the deal will give the Burbank-based company a majority stake in Hulu — which Iger wants to expand internationally with a stronger slate of original content.

Disney “spends more on content than anyone else globally, it has decades of experience in making excellent content, it has a huge balance sheet with low leverage and it’s a brand that’s known the world over,” RBC Capital Markets analyst Steven Cahall wrote in a December note.

Announced in December 2017, the acquisition shocked the news and entertainment industries and left insiders questioning why Murdoch was opting to dismantle a Hollywood juggernaut built over the last 34 years.

Analysts and others rushed to figure out how the separation of the 20th Century Fox studio and other possessions would reshape the sector, while competitor Comcast scrambled to put in its own offer for the sprawling production empire – setting off a bidding war that would last well into the next year. Disney ultimately prevailed after increasing its offer from the original $52.8 billion.

While the companies sought global regulatory approval for the deal, they each acted quickly to lay the groundwork for their soon-to-be revamped operating structures. A slew of former Fox executives are poised to make the transition to the new company, but potentially thousands of layoffs are expected at Disney as it works to eliminate redundancies and integrate the new members of its portfolio.

Fox began trading on Wall Street on Tuesday as the new entity and the company rolled out its revamped board of directors, which now includes former House Speaker Paul Ryan, R-Wis., and Formula One Group CEO Chase Carey.

The new Fox entity will focus on advertising revenue and earnings from pay TV providers to drive growth, but some analysts warn it could be slow initially.

“While we continue to believe new Fox’s TV network portfolio has pricing power and may prove to be a better positioned portfolio than the larger [21st Century Fox’s], revenue growth will be lumpy,” Morgan Stanley analyst Benjamin Swinburne wrote in a note.

The firm heads into its new chapter after a strong February for its FOX News Digital division, which topped CNN with 1.5 billion total multi-platform views – a 9 percent year-over-year growth. Lachlan Murdoch is expected to address employees at a town hall address on Thursday.

End Times Villain Bill Gates Says That AI Will Replace Humans In ‘Most Things’ Who Will No Longer Be Needed In The Coming Dystopian Future

Published

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

Bill Gates: Within 10 years, AI will replace many doctors and teachers—humans won’t be needed ‘for most things’

At the end of the 19th century, there was an explosion of technology that was unprecedented in human history, as if a spirit had risen and had given man a form of wisdom not previously possessed. This massive increase in available knowledge was prophesied in the book of Daniel and guess what? We again experiencing a level of unprecedented intelligence and this time it’s the artificial kind. AI is preparing this world to receive the counterfeit king the Bible calls Antichrist, and predictably, Bill Gates is front and center in the end times action.

“But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased.” Daniel 12:4 (KJB)

Christian, we are living in the most technologically-advanced civilization of all time, but you’d do well to put your nose deep into your King James Bible, the scripture of truth, if you want to find out what’s really going on. The book of James 3:13-18 (KJB) tells us that there is a wisdom that comes from above and is pure, peaceable and gentle. That’s the Bible and the Holy Spirit. But there is another wisdom that is not from above, but is earthly, sensual and devilish. That’s AI and the tech titans. Can you tell the difference between the two? You can if you have a King James Bible and the Holy Spirit.

Over the next decade, advances in artificial intelligence will mean that humans will no longer be needed “for most things” in the world, says Bill Gates.

FROM CNBC: That’s what the Microsoft co-founder and billionaire philanthropist told comedian Jimmy Fallon during an interview on NBC’s “The Tonight Show” in February. At the moment, expertise remains “rare,” Gates explained, pointing to human specialists we still rely on in many fields, including “a great doctor” or “a great teacher.”

But “with AI, over the next decade, that will become free, commonplace — great medical advice, great tutoring,” Gates said.

In other words, the world is entering a new era of what Gates called “free intelligence” in an interview last month with Harvard University professor and happiness expert Arthur Brooks. The result will be rapid advances in AI-powered technologies that are accessible and touch nearly every aspect of our lives, Gates has said, from improved medicines and diagnoses to widely available AI tutors and virtual assistants.

“It’s very profound and even a little bit scary — because it’s happening very quickly, and there is no upper bound,” Gates told Brooks.

The debate over how, exactly, most humans will fit into this AI-powered future is ongoing. Some experts say AI will help humans work more efficiently — rather than replacing them altogether — and spur economic growth that leads to more jobs being created.

Others, like Microsoft AI CEO Mustafa Suleyman, counter that continued technological advancements over the next several years will change what most jobs look like across nearly every industry, and have a “hugely destabilizing” impact on the workforce.

“These tools will only temporarily augment human intelligence,” Suleyman wrote in his book “The Coming Wave,” which was published in 2023. “They will make us smarter and more efficient for a time, and will unlock enormous amounts of economic growth, but they are fundamentally labor replacing.” READ MORE

Sleek New $143 Million Maine Correctional Center In Windham Has Everything But King James Bibles As Chaplain Issues Request For Assistance

Published

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

Sleek new $143 million Maine Correctional Center in Windham opens after four years of construction with everything but King James Bibles and we’re fixing that

The new Maine Correctional Center in Windham officially opened in 2023 on the grounds of the former prison, which was more than 100 years old. The new facility is a medium security facility with a capacity of 566 male residents and 54 female residents, not including the Women’s Center. It looks more like a hotel than like a prison, is equipped with all the latest amenities, and provides ample opportunities for education, rehabilitation, and treatment services for all of the incarcerated population. Sounds pretty good. What doesn’t it have? King James Bibles, and we’re fixing that.

Where the word of a king is, there is power: and who may say unto him, What doest thou?” Ecclesiastes 8:4 (KJB)

Chaplain Daniel reached out to us a few days ago and said “I have many unmet requests for KJV Bibles in this facility and I am looking for resources that may help meet this need. Thank you.” You can look all you like, but organizations that will send out large print full King James Bibles are few and far between. That’s why God raised up Bibles Behind Bars, to meet the ‘unmet requests’ for King James Bibles that come from so many jail and prison chaplains across the country. Come help us to send out a couple hundred KJVs to Chaplain Daniel at the Maine Correctional Center, Chaplain Lison at the Sweetwater County Detention Center in Wyoming, and all the others who write to us on a regular basis looking for help from Florida all the way up to Alaska. We need you!

If God has prospered you, please take a moment to click on the donate button to help us in this monumental task of providing King James Bibles, New Testaments, scripture portions, gospel tracts as well as Spanish Bibles to inmates in jails and prisons from Florida to Alaska, and every state in between. We need your prayers, we need your generous financial support, and we need you to stand with us in the closing days of the Church Age. Thank you so very much, TO THE FIGHT!!!

European Union Chief Tells All 27 Member States To Prepare For World War 3 With Supplies And ‘Survival Kits’ As War With Russia Grows Ever Closer

Published

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

The European Union is ready to order all of its citizens to prepare survival kits with 72-hours worth of supplies in the face of a looming World War 3 threat as NATO warned Russia it faces a “devastating” revenge strike if they attack any part of the EU

With each passing day, the drumbeats of war grow louder and louder as a military conflict between the European Union and Russia now seems unavoidable. NTEB has told you from the beginning of the war in Ukraine, that Putin is not trying to win the war, his goal is to keep it percolating at a nice, little simmer until he can draw everyone else into it. Last week, it was just the nation of France issuing the World War 3 ‘Survival Guide’, and today it’s all 27 member states who will get them. That’s progress, and that’s the memo.

“The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God.” Psalm 9:17 (KJB)

The headlines are also blaring a possible coming conflict between the United States and Iran, warning signs include but not limited to military buildup, Iranian proxies, sanctions, military muscle flexing, and imposed deadlines. The Trump administration seems intent on two things at the moment. One, they want to impose a ‘peace deal’ on Ukraine negotiated with the Russian without Ukraine input, and two, a military conflict in the Middle East. In the meantime, Putin sits fat and happy watching the rest of the world readjusting itself to suit his agenda.               

EU to order ALL citizens to ready WW3 survival kits as NATO warns Putin faces ‘devastating’ revenge if he attacks Europe

FROM THE SUN US: European Union bureaucrats are pushing for every household in the 27-nation bloc to prepare the kit for war and natural disasters. It is expected that will be part of a union’s broader “preparedness strategy” amid the threat from Russia. Key items they will ask the bloc’s 450 million citizens to gather includes water, energy bars and a flashlight.

And meanwhile, NATO boss Rutte issued one of his strongest rebukes to Putin yet as he vowed a “fierce” response to any attack on Europe. Speaking in Warsaw, Poland, the ex-Dutch Prime Minister warned of any settlement to end the war in Ukraine that would be “favourable” to Putin.

He said: “Eastern Europe fear such an outcome would allow Russian President Vladimir Putin to rebuild his country’s forces and threaten other countries in the region in the coming year.”

“If anyone were to miscalculate and think they can get away with an attack on Poland or on any other ally, they will be met with the full force of this fierce alliance. Our reaction will be devastating.”

“This has to be very clear to Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin and anyone else who wants to attack us.”

Rutte’s comments come as Europe has been put on notice by the White House – with new US President Donald Trump determined to find a quick end to the war in Ukraine and putting Europe on notice. Trump is calling on Britain and the EU to up their military spending so they no longer have to “rely” on the US for protection.

Elsewhere, in a chilling show of force, the Kremlin fired the cruise missiles from its Ufa attack sub in the Sea of Japan. Russian state media boasted claims that the missiles hit a land target over 620 miles away in the Khabarovsk region, as well as a naval target. And after the agreement yesterday of a ceasefire in the Black Sea, both Russia and Ukraine accused the other of breaching the deal.

President Volodymyr Zelensky accused Moscow of “manipulations and threats” and warning: “We don’t believe them. The world really doesn’t believe Russia.” Zelensky added: “Unfortunately, even now, even today, on the very day of negotiations, we see how the Russians have already begun to manipulate.” READ MORE
