Elon Musk offers to buy Twitter for $43 billion. What does Elon think he’ll gain from the acquisition and will the current Twitter shareholders accept the offer?
The Long History Of Media And Billionaires - GDI 4254 starts at 32:51
The Elon Musk Twitter story gets some more discussion. Should Twitter be more open? Do rich people need to own a media company? Do you want a micro social network? Should the Twitter code be open sourced? What’s inside the box? Twitter anger, written on Twitter. D&D talk takes over.
Starring Rich Stroffolino, Justin Robert Young, Len Peralta, Roger Chang, Amos, Joe.
