Roughly 60% of Wall Street identifies as conservative-leaning. Wouldn't you think there would be a news org that caters to this demographic? Bloomberg WSJ (news room) FT Economist Plus Yahoo, Marketwatch, others All liberal. I see a business opportunity here, for a non-crazy doctrinaire fiscally conservative financial publication.

FOXB is really more about politics than finance.

Wall St is guilt ridden larping Randians, mostly focused on minimizing taxes on their W2 income. With a few exceptions, they like to be told what to think.

Not sure fiscal conservatism exists in the wild these days (or in the last 2 decades or more)

WSJ liberal? Ummm, no. Bloomberg, FT & Economist are very centrist, fair and balanced.

All you’d have to do is curate the best Twitter accounts and you’d be off and running. @caroljsroth for EIC

“Fiscally conservative” doesn’t exist anymore in the U.S. landscape. We add a trillion to national debt every 100 days’ish. The Republican Party is in control and gives $40B to bailout Argentine farmers while US farmers go bankrupt.
Replying to @dailydirtnap
I think the premise is wrong. Most of Wall Street are Centrists even if they identify as Conservative or Liberal if those are the only choices given. The media outlets you mentioned are primarily Centrists (at least the first 4 you mentioned). So it all works.

I’m pretty Conservative but prefer my news to be about 55% Left. I can filter the rest. 55% Conservative starts feeling like Propaganda.

"Why is everything half an inch to my left so liberal?" *Me sitting at an 8.5 on a scale of 1 to 10 conservative

Fiscally conservative types are libertarian and ancap types. Needless to say, they aren't popular. Wall St is conservative leaning in name only. In truth they are addicted to the money printers, MMT, and progressive government policies.

Zerohedge is this. Some will say, “oh no they’re too far right”. But that’s the thing about contrary views.

i think you calling The Economist, WSJ, FT and Bbg "liberal" says more about you and the current state of politics than those orgs

The WSJ will go back to conservative once Trump is gone. They suffer from tds now.

💯 I’ll never understand why conservatives shy away from making great news platforms, it’s gotten better in recent years, but finance is a huge opportunity.

FBN is getting unwatchable, too. I think the opportunity would be for media that focuses on the business trends of Middle America... small business, limited political BS...

80% of Wall St are political whores whose opinions change faster than the weather.

Huh?? Then what the hell is @FoxBusiness then? If you infuse left or right ideology into financial news you are gonna churn out a shitty product imo.
