The cast of characters is just fabulous, it really was. It was the crucible and a lot of companies, there's no crucible companies also in tech and stuff like that. Today, we'll talk about Twitter's plan or lack thereof to bring back band accounts. We'll look at the latest hurdle in the news Corp Fox reunion and we'll speak with the author, Anan Girgardas, about the latest threats to democracy and how they can be overcome.
Guest host William D. Cohan joins Kara to discuss the latest developments in the Twitter saga: banned accounts will return! Apple could ban Twitter from the App Store! Elon drinks caffeine-free Diet Coke?! Also, protests in China could disrupt Apple. Friend of Pivot Anand Giridharadas joins to discuss his latest book, "The Persuaders," and how clear, concise messaging could help save democracy.
