Social Media Bans: from Trump to the Taliban; WHO Jabs at the Third U.S. Shot

Social media giants Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube each have differing policies on how the Taliban can interact with their platforms. As the group gains control in Afghanistan, investor Kevin O’Leary and Anti-Defamation League CEO Jonathan Greenblatt debate social media’s responsibility to censor the Taliban, or not. A third vaccine shot in the U.S. has prompted a global debate about vaccine access and public health, but the Biden administration is moving forward with a plan to boost eligible populations as early as this fall. Joe, Andrew and Steve Liesman break down consumer spending, consumer worries, and the indicators of economic recovery in the face of the Delta variant. Plus, as retailers continue to report strong financial results, the team considers a return to the office “peacocking” trend. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
