Gauging Democrats, Merging Media, & Glass Riding an AI Wave 07/08/24

It’s a pivotal week for President Joe Biden, as calls for him to step aside mount within the Democratic Party. Biden says he will not back down, and Axios’s Mike Allen says, the lawmaker conversations behind closed doors are more drastic than those making the headlines. After two deadly crashes and multiple quality control issues, Boeing has agreed to plead guilty to a criminal fraud charge that makes the aerospace giant a felon. Paramount Global and Skydance will merge–unless Paramount can find another suitor in the next 45 days, and CNBC’s Steve Kovach explains the EU’s regulatory agenda for big tech. Plus, shares of Corning Glass are soaring. In a rare interview, CEO Wendell Weeks explains how a 173-year-old glass company went from making light bulbs to riding the AI and cloud computing wave.
