Btw in the most recent tellings of “what the hell happened with AT&T + Warner”, the fact that the deal got held up bc of a DOJ suit is the new culprit, bc it gave Netflix and Disney and everyone else more time to build. — PolitiTweet.org

Very clever funding announcement from Axios and @danprimack. Btw@ I believe this is the second time the company has sold shares via secondary (which means early investors and/or employees/founders can turn their shares into cash). https://t.co/vMimIf6CzP — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Kafka @pkafka

@swodinsky @Bryson_M @sarafischer @provenself Now, if Netflix had turned around and turned my interview into a paid ad, I’d be rightfully pissed, bc that would violate the understood intent of what we agreed to. But I wouldn’t really be able to complain - because in the end it’s their content. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Kafka @pkafka

@swodinsky @Bryson_M @sarafischer @provenself Full disclosure: I’ve done a version of this with Netflix, where I moderated 3 earnings calls a few years ago. Same way Sara describes her conditions for FB - none. So I treated it like a chance to interview Netflix execs about whatever I wanted, so I did. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Kafka @pkafka

@swodinsky @Bryson_M @sarafischer @provenself It is *weird* and not great that FB brought in actual journos to make the content for them. And not good at all that apparently that the full intent of fb’s plan - “we will run this after the fact as sponcon” - was communicated. Otoh: If you do work for FB, you do work for FB. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Kafka @pkafka

@swodinsky @Bryson_M @sarafischer @provenself Seems *mostly* standard: Facebook pays $$$ for “thought leadership” sponsorship at high profile conference which comes with a post-conference component where they can run their whatever on the Atlantic sites (bc thought leadership must be seen!). — PolitiTweet.org
