WILL CAIN (CO-HOST): But I will say, I can't help but notice this, okay? And I'm only noticing this. So Live Nation is owned by Liberty Media. Liberty Media's CEO is John Malone. John Malone has gone about the process of de-wokeifying most of his companies. Batgirl out. Most of this has been made sane once again under the umbrella of Liberty Media. Once you let go of something that the Democratic Party had control of, you suddenly start getting threats of FTC letters. Ask Elon Musk.
All of a sudden now, if you lose control of something, the government wants to take a look. And when I see that Amy Klobuchar and a few of these senators want to look into Ticketmaster, it reminds me, what else does Liberty own? Oh, they just bought CNN. And CNN's going through a process of de-wokeification as well. And now there's threats of, oh I don't know, antitrust looking under the hood.
HARRIS FAULKNER (CO-HOST): That's where it's coming from. The DOJ today.
CAIN: It's simply an observation but it does seem to be a correlation. There is a rhyme, I don't know if it repeats, but there is a rhythm here.
