Bari Chases Cuomo, The WaPo’s Attiah Defeat, The NYT’s Kalshi Gamble
About this episode
The episode discusses Bari Weiss's interactions with Chris Cuomo, The Washington Post's legal defeat regarding Karen Attiah, and The New York Times Co.'s potential deal with Kalshi.
Bari Weiss has been quietly courting NewsNation’s Chris Cuomo. The two have been exchanging texts and recently met for a meal, but is a deal even possible? Next, The Washington Post suffered an embarrassing legal defeat after an arbiter ruled it wrongfully fired columnist Karen Attiah and ordered the Jeff Bezos-owned newspaper to rehire her and award her back pay. And finally, The New York Times Co. is considering inking a major deal with the controversial prediction markets platform Klashi. Should the Gray Lady be doing business with such a company? Some staffers inside the newspaper are concerned it could tarnish the outlet’s reputation. 0:00 Intro and Status Summit Plug 2:30 Bari Weiss Courts Chris Cuomo 17:54 WaPo Forced to Re-Hire Karen Attiah 29:08 The Athletic Considers Kalshi Partnership Learn more about your ad choices.
