In before a fascist wannabe billionaire buys the weather channel just to destroy any credibility it has and hijack the climate change debate. Even change the name of weather channel to something like “Y”.

Let the enshittification begin.

The Weather Channel tv channel isn't owned by IBM and isn't part of this deal
