LA Times owner met with pro-Trump celebrities to plan MAGA alternative to The View

Cheryl Hines, the wife of Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who is set to play a key role in the incoming Trump administration, is reportedly among the people Los Angeles Times owner Patrick Soon-Shiong consulted with as he pushes media platforms to appeal to Right-leaning voters. 

Soon-Shiong met with Hines and actor Rob Schneider, both Hollywood celebrities connected to President-elect Donald Trump, to discuss a “MAGA-friendly” version of ABC News’s The View and “create a conservative answer” to the Democrat-friendly show, according to a Status newsletter from former CNN senior media reporter Oliver Darcy published Thursday.
