    2. Chamath Palihapitiya

      Palihapitiya says a billion-dollar short position would have gotten his attention, unlike the erroneously reported amount.

      Sacks argues The New York Times has lost its power to intimidate people into silence over the past decade.

      “You know, ten years ago, if The New York Times ran a hippie on somebody, even if other people didn't like it, they wouldn't wanna say anything because they'd be afraid that they would be the next target. And that mystique and that fear has completely broken down.”

    7. Marc Rowan

      Rowan says most private credit is investment grade, contrary to financial press focus on levered lending.

    8. Chamath Palihapitiya

      Palihapitiya says the future of media is unscripted user-generated content, with YouTube already dominating.

    9. David Sacks

    10. David Sacks

      Sacks expresses surprise Warner's board chose Netflix over Paramount's higher bid that had better regulatory prospects.

      “I'm a little surprised actually that the Warner's board went with Netflix when they had Paramount as an option, assuming this Paramount offer was on the table because it seems like a better deal and it's probably a little bit more likely to get through the regulators.”

      Palihapitiya says realizing media lied about Trump made him feel betrayed by institutions responsible for truth to power.

      “So for me it was an evolution where I was like I can't believe I'm being lied to by this group of people whose sole responsibility is to hold truth to power.”

    2. Marc Rowan

      Rowan says media focuses on $2 trillion of levered lending, ignoring the broader $40 trillion private credit market.

      “What we spend all our time talking about on the press is $2,000,000,000,000 of $40,000,000,000,000 which should properly be called levered lending.”

    3. Chamath Palihapitiya

      Palihapitiya says his biggest SPAC mistake was talking about them on CNBC and Twitter.
