Cara Swisher and Scott Galloway welcome you back to Pivot. This week, they talk about the relationship between China's Communist Party and TikTok. Cara: Are we comfortable with an organization that wants to undermine America controlling the media? Scott: I don't believe there is any separation between the CCP and a Chinese company who can disappear CEO for four weeks.
Kara and Scott are back to discuss the demise of a journalism antitrust bill, as well as a potential deal between Vice and a Saudi media giant. Also, Twitter says payments to a whistleblower shouldn't affect its deal with Elon Musk. Then, Friend of Pivot Mark Bergen chats about his new book, “Like, Comment, Subscribe: Inside YouTube’s Chaotic Rise to World Domination.” Plus, Scott was on Bill Maher!
You can read the statement we mentioned from Little People of America here.
