"Why are they so afraid?": Jon Stewart says Apple refused to let him interview FTC Chair Lina Khan
SalonJon Stewart was not shy on Monday about calling out his former employer, Apple, for prohibiting him from interviewing Federal Trade Commission Chair Lina Khan. On the latest episode of "The Daily Show," Stewart focused on pressing topics like unregulated tech companies, artificial intelligence, monopolies and how they already have had a lasting and grave impact on the 2024 election and American society and politics. To address concerns about unchecked tech monopolies, the "Daily Show" host invited Khan to sit in the hot seat and answer questions about the growing tech conglomerates in the country. Khan answered Stewart's question, "I think it just shows one of the dangers of what happens when you concentrate so much power and so much decision-making in a small number of companies."
