In January, executive editor Kevin Merida resigned after Soon-Shiong tried to block a story that accused one of his friends’ dogs of biting a woman in a Los Angeles park.

Why is trump so popular with South African immigrant billionaire “investors”?
I mean, I only know of two, but two is still a weirdly strange amount…
