5:04Now PlayingIn this Wolff Responds, Prof. Wolff discusses Elon Musk purchasing Twitter for $44 billion and comedian Russell Brand’s comments on the buyout. As yet another billionaire uses his wealth to obtain control of a media platform, Prof. Wolff asks us to consider what this reveals about our culture and economy. Is free speech free if it can be sold to the highest bidder? Should our digital public spaces used by the masses be controlled by a small minority? Can democracy exist within a capitalist society?
