Episode notes

Social media companies can and will fall. And maybe we should take comfort in the fact that if elon musk totally blows this, we've been through many social menia platforms already. Sherin kafari is a senior correspondent covering social media at recode. Before that, you heard from her colleague, peter kafka. He writes a weekly call and about media and tech on vox dot com. You can find it once or twice a week wherever you listen.

Elon Musk and Twitter have reached a deal. Recode’s Peter Kafka and Shirin Ghaffary explain what it means for the business of Twitter, and for free speech on the platform.

This episode was produced by Miles Bryan and Hady Mawajdeh, engineered by Efim Shapiro, fact-checked by Laura Bullard, and hosted by Sean Rameswaram, who also edited.
