Quick Glance: Trial Judge Evaluates Trump's Compliance with Gag Order
  • Former President Trump is on trial in New York for hush money issues. David Pecker from 'National Enquirer' testified about an agreement to manipulate stories about Trump and his rivals.

TikTok will not be sold, Chinese parent ByteDance tells US
Quick Glance: ByteDance Would Consider Closing TikTok in US Over Sale, Sources Claim
  • ByteDance would prefer to cease TikTok operations rather than engage in a sale if all legal avenues are exhausted to combat potential legislation banning the platform in US app stores, as per four sources.

  • Despite TikTok's massive popularity with over a billion users, it remains unprofitable, contributing a small fraction to ByteDance's overall revenues and daily active user base.

  • ByteDance stated on Thursday in a release on Toutiao, a media platform it possesses, that there are no intentions to sell TikTok, in response to claims from The Information about ByteDance exploring sale scenarios for TikTok's US operations excluding the recommending algorithm for user videos.

  • As of December, ByteDance's valuation stood at $268 billion when it proposed a buyback of approximately $5 billion in shares from investors.

Elon Musk’s X Names a New Head of Safety
Quick Glance: New Safety Leaders at Elon Musk’s X
  • Elon Musk’s X announced on Tuesday the appointment of two new employees to oversee safety on the platform. Kylie McRoberts, an existing X employee, was promoted to head of safety. Yale Cohen, an Executive Vice President at advertising and public relations firm Publicis Media, joined X as head of brand safety and advertiser solutions.

  • X has faced a challenging advertising business in the past 18 months since Musk acquired the company formerly known as Twitter. Criticism has also been directed towards the safety of users on X during Musk’s tenure. Many members of vulnerable groups such as the LGBTQ community have described X under Musk as toxic, with harassment and bullying largely unchecked.

  • McRoberts will oversee the global safety team, responsible for developing new safety features and maintaining safety policies. The role has historically garnered significant attention and debate.

  • Cohen and two additional hires under him will ensure that customers and brands on X continue to have a safe advertising experience. X has not yet responded to an interview request for McRoberts and Cohen.
