Episode description

In the spotlight today is Linda Yaccarino, CEO of X. She's facing a storm of controversy and a chorus of voices calling for her resignation. These calls come from a group of influential advertising executives, alarmed by the recent actions and statements of X's owner, Elon Musk.

Yaccarino, with her roots in NBCUniversal, stepped into X with the ambitious task of rejuvenating its ad business. But Musk's takeover and his unique approach to running the platform have led to a significant advertiser pullback. Why? Concerns over content moderation and the platform's future direction are at the heart of it.
