Brian Lairn on WNYC, and here's how we'll close today.

In our Brian Laird Show newsletter last week, our reader question asked if you are choosing

your social media platforms based on politics these days and whether you think

doing so is a good thing. I'll read some of the responses we got now and invite anyone to call

in on the same question at 212-433 WNYC. So it's a call-in on the question, are you choosing which

social media platforms to look at or participate in based on your politics more than before? And is that a good thing?

212-433. WNYC, 212, 433-9-6-92 call or text.

Now, there was, as many of you know, already a movement to leave X the last few years, formerly Twitter,

because of what critics see as Elon Musk standing for.

Did you switch to something else relatively early on by that measure,

blue sky, discord, whatever it might be, or maybe more recently, maybe your relationship with

social media sites has changed since the election and maybe even since just last Monday,

the array of tech billionaires sitting front and center at the inauguration.

Maybe Facebook or Instagram or places where you did feel comfortable, but not anymore, after the

latest Trump and Zuckerberg news. You tell us, 212, 433, WNYC, 433-962.

But the other part of the question is,

is this dividing up into social media camps by politics

a good thing?

An argument against would be that it's better to engage

across a spectrum of views than risk

bubbling yourself in an echo chamber.

But is that more important than what may be your sense of right and wrong in the business world?
