Peter Thiel Is Reportedly Exploring Launching Conservative News Outlet

Good, and I hope it takes off. While there are numerous respected conservative magazines, the right has no legitimate news networks. I think we'd all be better off if conservatives had, say, a TV channel that actually reported real news.

How does this fit into his Monopoly first strategy? News outlets are not monopolies and have no significant competitive advantage (unlike PayPal and FB which have network effects).<p>I&#x27;ve listened somewhere that he also opened a restaurant some time ago and it failed, which is why he&#x27;s so negative on restaurants.

Diversity of thought is a good thing. I hope Thiel succeeds.

Comments here are hilarious. Replace &quot;Peter Thiel&quot; with &quot;Elon Musk&quot; and &quot;conservative&quot; with &quot;liberal&quot; and the circle jerk will fly.

This again? Either I’m entering my dotage, or this was on the front page recently. Either way, if Thiel wants to burn his money for ideological purposes, I’m sure that the line to sell him matches is around the block.<p>Edit: naeem, I’d encourage you to move past assumptions and actually look at comment histories; in my case at least you’re dead wrong.
