Death of the Blue Checks, Disney vs. DeSantis and CEOs Around the World 04/21/23

Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen has called for a “constructive” and “healthy” relationship between the United States and China, in spite of conflicting national security interests. Former Xerox CEO Ursula Burns and West Exec Advisors co-founder Michele Flournoy discuss the fine line that corporate leaders must walk to do business globally. Twitter has finally implemented a previously announced removal of blue check marks. The change means that only paying Twitter Blue subscribers will retain a blue check mark next to their name. Disney is telling its lobbyists to step up its fight against Florida Governor Ron DeSantis and his GOP allies by targeting land use related bills that could hurt the company. Plus, Buzzfeed is laying off 15% of its staff and police in Canada are investigating a gold heist valued at around $15 million from Toronto’s Pearson airport.

In this episode (no blue check marks here!):
