Excerpt:

Donald Trump has hosted a lot of dignitaries in the past week. Only one is worth more than the president-elect.

It’s unclear how he might serve a Trump administration — but one possibility would be taking over the cancer moonshot initiative launched by Vice President Joe Biden.

Dr. Patrick Soon Shiong views his ownership of the Los Angeles Times as a 100-year plan. (Christina House / Los Angeles Times)

……………………………………………………………

Soon-Shiong met with The Times staff for the first time on April 13 and said he bought the paper to stop Tronc from closing the Washington bureau and initiating another round of layoffs. He said the newsroom would move out of its rented space — and downtown Los Angeles for the first time in 137 years — to a building in El Segundo next to Los Angeles International Airport. He said he has a lifelong admiration of newspapers and journalists and promised an era of stability.

He described the Los Angeles Times as a linchpin to a sprawling region and a “family legacy” — once the Chandlers’ and, now, his.

“I view this,” he said, “as a 100-year plan.”

    Perhaps JEFF BEZOS, owner of the Washington Post, may soon lose some of his FAKE NEWS POWER due to some much hoped-for and needed competition by Dr. Patrick Soon Shiong, new owner of the LA Times.

    Likewise, influential competition may become a threat to the leftist New York Times, Chicago Tribune, etc. etc. MSM – Ad nauseam
