Episode 9: Don Lemon, Candy Owens, & Messy Media

I delve into the recent rifts in the media landscape as Elon Musk cuts ties with Don Lemon after a contentious interview on The Don Lemon Show. Meanwhile, Candace Owens gets the boot from The Daily Wire. Check it out as I discuss the importance of creators cultivating their own platforms, regardless of size. From the significance of independence to the risks of collaborating with another platform, I explore why it's crucial to prioritize building in your own space.
