Interview with Kara Swisher
I’m sorry that it had to end so quickly. I listen to Kara’s every On With and Pivot podcast, and all her Podcasts of many years. Also, Code Switch ….code conference, and now on CNN. Thank you. Like Kara, I don’t know how people survive or navigate this world without reading the daily Washington Post, New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and even Apple news,. Besides listening to our president speak hearing all the coverage of what’s happening in the world. Where would we be without journalism and journalist? Thank you.
