BOCA RATON, FL / ACCESS Newswire / May 6, 2026 / Newsmax Inc. (NYSE:NMAX) (“Newsmax” or the “Company”) today announced a major milestone in its digital expansion, surpassing 25 million followers across all social media platforms.
Newsmax continuous and significant growth in social media followers – up 25% from a year ago – underscores the brand’s accelerating reach and deepening engagement with audiences nationwide.
The Company reported 25.4 million total social media followers, driven by strong growth across nearly every platform.
This milestone comes alongside record-setting audience metrics, including 104.18 million in Q1 2026 Facebook user reach-a 44% increase quarter-over-quarter and an impressive 119% increase compared to the first quarter of 2025.
The Company noted that this marks the largest Facebook reach in Newsmax history.
“This growth shows that Newsmax is truly touching a nerve with audiences,” said Christopher Ruddy, CEO of Newsmax. “We are continuing to execute on our strategy to reach all people on all platforms, and the results speak for themselves.”
Newsmax’s social media expansion reflects sustained momentum across both established and emerging platforms:
Facebook: 6.2 million followers (+22% since June 2025)
YouTube Live: 2.6 million followers (+8%)
Truth Social: 6.9+ million followers (+61%)
Twitter/X: 3.7+ million followers (+7%)
Instagram: 2.2 million followers (+13%)
Gettr: 1.5 million followers (+25%)
TikTok: 188,000+ followers (+52%)
This widespread growth highlights Newsmax’s ability to connect with audiences across diverse demographics and content ecosystems, from traditional social giants to emerging alternative platforms.
Beyond social media, Newsmax continues to see strong performance across its broader digital footprint.
The Newsmax App has now surpassed 13 million downloads, reflecting growing demand for direct-to-consumer streaming access to the network’s programming.
The Newsmax App allows users to easily access the free Newsmax2 streaming channel, Newsmax.com, as well as the Newsmax+ paid service offering the regular Newsmax channel.
Combined with its social reach, these figures illustrate a rapidly expanding, multi-platform media presence that allows Newsmax to engage audiences wherever they consume content.
The Company attributes its growth to a combination of timely news coverage, opinion programming and a strong connection with viewers seeking fresh perspectives in the media landscape.
“Passion for our brand remains incredibly strong,” Ruddy added. “We’re seeing audiences actively seek out Newsmax across platforms, share our content and become part of a growing community that values our reporting and viewpoint.”

When the investor who called the 2008 housing crash walks away from a position, the market pays attention. Michael Burry, the Scion Asset Management founder made famous by The Big Short, confirmed Monday that he exited his entire GameStop (NYSE: GME) stake — and the reason behind the move cuts straight to the heart of one of the most audacious M&A proposals in recent memory.
The trigger: GameStop’s unsolicited, nonbinding offer to acquire eBay (NASDAQ: EBAY) for approximately $55.5 billion in cash and stock — a deal that would be roughly four times the size of GameStop itself.
The Deal That Broke the Thesis
GameStop CEO Ryan Cohen announced Sunday that the company has offered $125 per share for eBay, structured as a 50/50 split between cash and GameStop common stock. The bid carries a roughly 20% premium to eBay’s last closing price and a 46% premium relative to where the stock traded in early February — around the time GameStop began quietly accumulating a 5% stake in the e-commerce platform.
To fund the cash portion, GameStop has secured a nonbinding highly confident letter from TD Bank for approximately $20 billion in debt financing. The company also holds roughly $9.4 billion in cash. However, a significant funding gap remains, with estimates suggesting the deal falls roughly $16 billion short of the implied transaction value — a gap Cohen suggested could be bridged through additional stock issuance.
Cohen’s vision centers on leveraging GameStop’s roughly 1,600 U.S. retail locations as fulfillment and drop-off points for eBay transactions, along with a targeted $2 billion in annualized cost reductions within 12 months of closing. He sees eBay as a severely undermanaged asset with the potential to significantly grow its earnings under tighter operational discipline.
Why Burry Left
Burry’s exit wasn’t impulsive — it was disciplined. His investment thesis for GameStop was built around the idea that the company could evolve into a Berkshire Hathaway-style holding vehicle: lean, cash-rich, and deploying capital conservatively. The eBay deal, as structured, blows that framework up entirely.
The pro forma leverage from the transaction would push the combined company’s Debt/EBITDA ratio well above 5x — a level that Burry had identified as a hard ceiling for his investment case. Interest coverage ratios under 4.0x further complicated the math. Burry noted on his Substack that this was his first sale since launching the newsletter, underscoring how seriously he viewed the deal as a departure from GameStop’s core value proposition.
GME shares fell more than 2% in after-hours trading following Burry’s announcement and have declined over 10% from recent highs.
Burry’s departure doesn’t necessarily doom the deal or GameStop’s stock — but it does crystallize a growing tension between Cohen’s aggressive growth ambitions and the disciplined capital allocation thesis that attracted institutional-minded investors to GME in the first place.
eBay has acknowledged receiving the proposal and confirmed its board will review the offer. Markets remain skeptical — eBay shares are trading well below the $125 offer price, a clear signal that investors are pricing in a low probability of the deal closing as proposed.
For small and microcap investors watching from the sidelines, the GameStop-eBay saga is a masterclass in how quickly an investment thesis can be rewritten — and why leverage assumptions matter as much as the deal itself.

Repositioning transforms Movies Unlimited from a transactional retailer into an extendable UNLIMITED platform designed to increase lifetime value, improve profitability, and enable category expansion
PLANTATION, Fla., April 29, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Alliance Entertainment Holding Corporation (Nasdaq: AENT), a leading distributor and omnichannel fulfillment partner to the entertainment and pop-culture collectibles industry, today announced the strategic repositioning and relaunch of Movies Unlimited as a scalable, collector-led brand platform, with the newly redesigned Movies Unlimited website now live and operational, designed to support higher margins, stronger customer lifetime value, and durable long-term growth.
Strategic Repositioning: From Retailer to Platform
The transformation of Movies Unlimited from a transactional online retailer into a scalable, proprietary brand platform operating under the “UNLIMITED” identity represents a structural evolution. Beginning with movies and expanding into other collector-driven verticals, the platform is structured to drive higher-margin revenue growth, build durable brand equity, and scale efficiently without proportional increases in operating complexity or cost.
Collector-First Growth Model Focused on Value Creation
The repositioning is underpinned by a deliberate shift toward higher-value collector behaviors that historically generate stronger margins and repeat purchasing dynamics. These include preorders, limited and exclusive editions, 4K UHD formats, curated collections, and repeat purchasing through loyalty and discovery-driven engagement. By prioritizing these behaviors, Movies Unlimited is designed to increase average order value, improve repeat purchase rates, and expand gross margins relative to traditional mass-market retail models.
Movies Unlimited creates opportunities for fans to engage more deeply with the studio brands and iconic stories they love. The site presents human-curated, data-informed collections that span the breadth of film-from niche discoveries to mainstream icons-framed by filmmaker legacies and standout catalog titles.
The new Movies Unlimited experience integrates AI-enhanced discovery systems that make collecting more personal and intuitive:
Personalized discovery and recommendation systems aligned with collector preferences
Adaptive merchandising based on browsing behavior and engagement signals
AI-assisted customer support designed to improve service efficiency and responsiveness
Positioned for Expansion and Capital Efficiency
The Movies Unlimited platform provides a repeatable framework for launching proprietary exclusives, IP-focused fan destinations, and additional UNLIMITED-branded verticals within a unified operating model. By leveraging shared merchandising, technology, and fulfillment infrastructure, Alliance can introduce new collector categories with limited incremental fixed investment, strengthening return on invested capital as the ecosystem expands.
“We’re transforming Movies Unlimited from a traditional online retailer into a curated platform built for movie collectors. This is a big win for collectors-more to discover, more to choose from, and the best way to build a collection,” said Jeff Walker, CEO of Alliance Entertainment.
