I’m told at least seven advertisers have dropped @karaswisher @profgalloway @PivotPod @ProfGMarkets On with Kara Swisher and Raging Moderates, for their incessant calls for the execution of Elon Musk — and their joking about the assassination attempt on President Trump.
I don’t believe in censorship, but advertisers need to decide if they support political violence and this kind of rhetoric
It’s extremely dangerous and disgraceful
I don’t know why a tech company would pay Scott and Karen $10m a year each to endorse violence.
Why pay for Prof G’s private jet and $4,000 hotel suites that he brags about constantly?!?
Disagree with Elon and Trump as much as you want — I certainly do — but endorsing political violence is unacceptable.
As a reminder - almost all political violence comes from the right.
Do you ever look anything up or just parrot this nonsense for fun?
I can’t remember any podcaster with millions of viewers/followers calling for the execution of a CEO — and certainly not since the assassinations of charlie Kirk and Brian Thompson (United healthcare CEO), and President Trump being shot.
When Scott calls for the execution of Elon he knows that the mentally ill people that make up but 1% of his audience might actually do it. That’s the key issue: when you have millions of followers thousands of them are suffering from acute mental illness.
@profgalloway and @karaswisher both know this and should immediately apologize and retract these statements
@profgalloway is the personification of "weak men make hard times". Only a weak man wants the state to use violence against someone he disagrees with ideologically.
Good on you Jason, for standing up to weak men.
@profgalloway is a perfect example of what liberalism does to people who once held relatively moderate positions and had some salient points around young men. He's now a psycho.
I’m amazed at how little people understand about free speech and censorship.
Free speech means they won’t get arrested for saying what they said.
Censorship would be if their podcast was removed so people couldn’t listen.
Advertisers canceling based on what they said is not anti-free speech or censorship
Story about Prof G. I took his Brand Strategy class at NYU while pursuing my MBA at night. I drove 1.5 hours from NJ after working all day. If you showed up 1 minute late he would not let you in his class and made you stand in the hallway. So i was working all day at a demanding job and driving 1.5 hours (often in heavy traffic) and that prick made me stand in hallway.
And Universities should also hold him accountable under their code of conduct. This man is allowed to teach @NYUStern
Lol, you’re right, Galloway should’ve just called Musk a traitor in one post, and then define traitors as deserving of death in another.
You people and your fucking apologia. What Galloway said is bad. Musk and Trump are orders of magnitude worse. You all know this, that’s why Chamath suddenly understands the struggles of average people.
Sadly, there's a quality issue here also. Listening to @karaswisher and @profgalloway is a broken record of nails on a chalkboard.

You're being a bit libelous for claiming @profgalloway was calling for Elon's execution. That's not what he said.
He said Elon was a Enemy of the West.
And one could make a point that he may be with his current behavior.
