About this episode
A district judge has denied Visa’s motion to be removed from a lawsuit against MindGeek, Pornhub’s owner. The judge upheld the legitimacy of the plaintiff’s allegation that Visa “knowingly” provided the tool for the site to monetize child pornography. Micheal Bowe, the lead attorney for the plaintiff, discusses suit against MindGeek, the fallout for Visa, and the precedent this case could set for all credit card companies. The Ford Foundation is marking five years since investing $1 billion from its endowment into significant social issues. President of the foundation Darren Walker discusses the ESG thesis and shares an update on the fund’s return rate: 28% to date. Plus a lucky Illinoisan is now a billion dollars richer after winning the third largest Mega Millions jackpot in U.S. history.
