Dan Le Batard 2:18
Joining us now from Metal Arc Media's New York studio, where he's hobnobbing around with another one of those obnoxious liberal elites, Pablo Torre. Chris Hayes is with us. He's the host of All In, weeknights on MSNBC, that propaganda outlet for the woke. He's the author of a new book called The Siren's Call. It's not about Trump or politics. It's about attention. And I want to get into some of the inauguration with him because he's written a think piece for the New York Times about how content is king. How, of course, Musk buys talking and Trump rules the world. That content is king now. Attention is the currency of the day. So, Chris, thank you for joining us. And you wrote this because what?
Dan Le Batard 3:00
Because you realized you, too, are a content merchant, an addict.
Chris Cote 3:05
I'm both an addict. I'm both a seller and a user. I don't know if you feel the same way, but yes, my livelihood is keeping people's attention. I'm also just compulsively online. And even if those are personal dispositions, I feel like we live in an age in which Attention is the most important resource. It's the most valuable. And we're watching it play out before our eyes. I mean, yesterday was a spectacle that perfectly illustrated this point. Elon Musk, Donald Trump, like these guys are where they are for a reason. And a lot of it has to do with how they manipulate attention.
Dan Le Batard 3:39
Well, tell me about how you experienced Elon Musk and Bezos and Zuckerberg at the inauguration with better seats than the incoming cabinet, a cabinet that is not unlike the cabinets in many white households, all white.
Chris Cote 3:55
Well, it was I mean, it was almost too on the nose. There's so many things that Trump does that are on the nose, passed on the nose. It was a really striking image. I don't think I've ever seen anything like that before. You had, you know, the head of Google, the head of Apple, the head of Amazon, the head of Facebook, the head of Tesla X. I mean, all standing in a line. They're all shot there.
