Lina Khan – FTC Chair on Amazon Antitrust Lawsuit & AI Oversight | The Daily Show

Why don't we have presidential candidates like this woman?

This woman's communication skills are amazing. She is always answering the exact question that is asked, no unnecessary rhetoric, transparent vocabulary. Normally I go into these interviews prepared to wade through swamps of verbiage.

Lina Khan is one of the best examples of a public servant working hard and doing the right thing.

What a well-spoken, well-informed, competent leader!

Man, the poise on this woman when Jon says they wouldn’t let her on the podcast. She knows exactly why. Love it.

Massive massive props to Jon for continuing this after Apple canceled his show for wanting to interview her and do a piece on AI, and I am grateful that Comedy Central allows it

I am not American, but I must say that I love her. Because what you do also affect people outside of the US. 20:25. On the political power to change things. I am a bit afraid what money in politics will do. I hope for politicians who don't sell their soul to the biggest spender. But work for the people.

As a small business seller on Amazon since 2014, I can concur.
Amazon's fees and practices are crazy, especially new fees they rolled out recently.
Nice to see its actually being mentioned.

As an American, I'd vote for this sort of discourse again and again.

We need people like Jon and Lina Khan.

Knew a guy who owned a small store in my hometown. When Walmart came into the next town over. I noticed his store had less in it. When I asked him about it. He said that some of his suppliers were forced to make an exclusive deal with Walmart to sell there. They had to sign a contract stating that they would only sell to Walmart. They were able to sell more product that way. But my friend couldn't get products for his store. Within a few months, his store was almost empty. He had no suppliers. Because they were all selling to Walmart. Within 6 months, his store was closed. And Walmart is in the next town over. You have to drive across the bridge and a few miles down the highway. His store was within walking distance from a lot of people

I was a public health nurse during CoViD, charged with investigating outbreaks in corporations and investigation/ensuring they were following public health policies or closing if need be if the company posed a massive health hazard.

We were not allowed to investigate deeply (no close contacts, no histories, no lists of known sick people) into Amazon buildings. Expectations all other businesses were expected to give us under penalty of law.
We were given a point person who worked for Amazon that we relayed information to, who was given the authority to self-investigate their own policies. Reports to authority agencies when it was blatantly obvious they did not abide by laws went unanswered.

What a phenomenally engaging interview, and what a fantastic display from the FTC Chair! She definitely sounds like the right person for the job!

Several times, it looked like Lina wanted to laugh at Jon's jokes or affirm his incisive commentary, but she was able to keep it professional. But I don't blame her one bit for laughing or nodding in affirmation when she did. These are the kinds of quality interviews that we need more of in television. Educational, constructively critical, and even some humor in the right context. A truly human conversation.

Khan is undeniably, outstandingly brilliant. Everyone should be thankful someone like her chose to work in the public rather than the private sector.

Poised and sharp. I was happy when she was nominated, she hasn’t disappointed.
We need more Lina Khan’s in government

I never thought I'd root for a governmental agency as much as I do for Lina Kahn and the FTC.

Ah, so that's why he left Apple 😄. Kudos to Jon for being unafraid to talk about it.

We are so lucky to have people like Lina Khan in public service

Ms Khan is a generational talent and I'm glad she got a moment to show off the important work she's been doing. Interview Jennifer Abruzzo next!

Lina Khan is my favorite thing about the current administration! I like her far more than any of the other politicians currently serving.
