'Elon Musk: 'Many media outlets are going to experience a mysterious
drop in revenue'

'As Elon Musk continues his deep dive into wasteful government spending,
reports are now emerging that big names in left-leaning American news,
including Politico and the New York Times, have been propped up by
millions in U.S. taxpayer dollars.
"Many media outlets are going to experience a mysterious drop in
revenue," the head of DOGE posted on X Wednesday morning.
USASPENDING.gov, the government-spending tracker, reveals Politico
received up to $27 million – some counts indicate $32 million – from
different federal agencies during Joe Biden's term in office.
"What they found was absolutely shocking," Tyler Durden of ZeroHedge
said concerning the internet sleuths that unearthed the information.
Some $500,000 was reportedly spent on 37 Politico "pro" subscriptions.
The New York Times received $3.1 million in taxpayer funds, while the
BBC in Britain collected $3.2 million.
During a briefing Wednesday at the White House, Press Secretary Karoline
Leavitt confirmed media outlets have been receiving federal tax dollars,
and that "will no longer be happening."
"The DOGE team is working on canceling those payments now," she said.
Interestingly, Politico staffers on Tuesday were told that a "technical
error" prevented their paychecks from being distributed.
The Shore News Network noted of the financial hiccup at Politico: "The
timing of these payroll issues is particularly sensitive as it coincides
with broader discussions about government funding for media.
"Posts on X (formerly Twitter) have expressed skepticism and concern,
with some users suggesting that the inability to pay employees might be
a consequence of government funding cuts, although no official
confirmation or denial has been issued by Politico on this matter."'
