Kathy O'neil's new book is called the shame machine who profits in the new age of humiliation. We should change people only on things that they can change, she says. The thirst for vengeance and revenge has gotten "accelerated and overlike" in the age of social media., writes Kathy o'neil.
Never mind: Elon's NOT joining the Twitter board after all. Kara and Scott discuss the Warner Media and Discovery deal closing. Plus, a strike at Etsy, and Saudi investments in Jared Kushner. Then, Kara is joined by Friend of Pivot and author of “The Shame Machine,” Cathy O’Neil.
You can find Cathy on Twitter at @mathbabedotorg.
