This seems both very plausible and also a good way to negotiate with Trump, who is a terrible negotiator who thinks he's a good negotiator. — PolitiTweet.org

@josephflaherty @lafemmefollette Wirecutter is pretty well circulated. But I still want weights. https://t.co/1oh5cQ98cI — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Kafka @pkafka

@josephflaherty End up doing some kind of calculus every time I do another search for free weights. Pay crazy markup now? Or go weightless for another 6 months, then get them for free + shipping. — PolitiTweet.org

@alexgiess @eric_young_1 @TVMoJoe @netflix But, then, 3)It's also good to hire traditional movie stars to make biggish budget movies because people all over the world want to see big budget movies where people punch and kill each other. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Kafka @pkafka

@alexgiess @eric_young_1 @TVMoJoe @netflix The Netflix story is that 1)Local content is crucial to building local audience and 2)As it happens, local content *also* turns out to travel well around the world so it's all a win. — PolitiTweet.org

@poniewozik @benyt The Michael Cohen-ness of this quite something. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Kafka @pkafka

@poniewozik @benyt Yes. I suppose there’s some crazy triple bank shot scheme where Cohen leaks CNN content to benefit Fox somehow. And it’s Cohen! So schemes are definitely in the realm. Going with Occam tho. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Kafka @pkafka

@CommunistJack Good work if you can get it. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Kafka @pkafka

I'm going to guess that whoever has access to Michael Cohen's taped conversations with CNN anchors and execs has access to Cohen's taped conversations with... other people. And that we are less likely to hear about those conversations. — PolitiTweet.org

Very good analysis on Netflix shakeup from @TVMoJoe. I think this link will get you to his Buffering newsletter, but you should already be subscribing, anyway. https://t.co/AzT7tga0ic — PolitiTweet.org

@robosalt Yeah there's something very modern-day pro sports about having Microsoft continue to pay him while he goes back to work for Amazon. — PolitiTweet.org

@schwartzsteins Have you seen Jade? — PolitiTweet.org

I want to say this is like David Caruso bailing on TV and NYPD Blue, not becoming a movie star, and then CSI-ing it a few years later. But I don't think that's *exactly* right and also it makes me sound very very old. Who can do better? — PolitiTweet.org

@eliotwb I think the problem for this startup is that if they get any kind of traction, Facebook will notice and then acquire them or put them out of business. — PolitiTweet.org

@RonWechsler Possible I missed it! But yeah. — PolitiTweet.org

I was... surprised to learn that our chat had a video component. Good thing my shirt was on brand! Also those shirts in my bedroom/recording studio were supposed to go to the dry cleaner back in March. https://t.co/zGHmyuydLD — PolitiTweet.org

And in a semi-coincidence, I am on Morning Brew's Business Casual pod today with @KinseyGrant, talking all things Netflix (this was recorded a couple weeks ago, otherwise we would certainly have discussed Cindy Holland's departure). — PolitiTweet.org
