I didn't write this piece so I guess your lack of, well I don't have to spell it out for you, knows no bounds.
Yet you posted the fake news.

People do understand that WotC makes Magic: The Gathering, right? One of the biggest cash cows in the games industry? Hazbro would be absolutely insane to give that up for any amount of money.
So, I haven't even watched the original video, because one guy's speculation does not constitute a "rumor." I'm more than capable of doing my own armchair business management. For example:
Not really; remember that the time to sell a business is when it's doing phenomenally well. If Hasbro is going down the tubes financially, selling off one profitable division to get a huge infusion of cash right now may be a sensible move. They could use the cash to buy Mattel and eliminate a lot of competition in mainstream toy sales, and reinvest leftover cash in their other profitable divisions.
Uh, psst. Hasbro made an offer to buy Mattel 2 months ago. They have the means already to do that. The only issues are Mattel's valuation, and anti-trust issues. They're not going "down the tubes financially".
Well even though the rumor is baloney, it might be fun to speculate about who could afford it, and might want to.
My #1 guess would be Asmodée Éditions.
Lots of good reasons for Asmodee wanting to acquire Wizards snipped
That is almost certainly a company that wants to get their hands of Magic The Gathering.
Please don't joke about this stuff. It is a serious medical condition when it does happen, and if it were to happen to Morrus, he might be tempted to eliminate any of us that know his secret. So obviously fake news.Can we start proper rumours? Like how [MENTION=1]Morrus[/MENTION] is not a human, but a robot powered by an undead hamster in a little wheel where his spleen should be?
If someone wanted to wave a large enough amount of dosh around everything is for sale generally with the exception perhaps of national treasures (Mona Lisa, US constitution etc).
