Ep. 274: Blue Checks, Pink Slips: The Twitter Saga Continues

Elon Musk’s takeover of Twitter wiped away one thorny lawsuit over his attempts to back out of the deal, but his rough start at the helm of the social network has spawned a new host of legal problems. On this week’s Pro Say, the hosts examine Musk’s decision to lay off thousands of Twitter’s workers, which has invited new litigation from former employees who say they were not given proper notice that they’d soon lose their jobs. Also on this week’s show, a rundown of some big-ticket ballot initiatives decided during Tuesday’s midterm elections, including measures covering reproductive rights, cannabis legalization and sports betting. Next, the founder of Barstool Sports sees his defamation case against a media company that published stories about his purported sexual misconduct thrown out. Finally, new trademark lawsuit just dropped, as Drake and 21 Savage take heat from Conde Nast over a bogus Vogue cover meant to promote their new album.
