What tech connected leaders really hate is the plebs being informed and having an opinion on policy. I see the same thing with the All-In podcast. All round glee on that podcast with things that negatively impact the working classes.
Billionaires are for billionaires while controlling the media.

I guess this is because on classic media, you have limited slots for sending - on social media, everybody can broadcast (youtubes slogan was "broadcast yourself", IIRC, for a long time?)
This allows those shows to be produced at nearly minimum costs - and since this is content is viewed by a lot of people, the creators see that "inviting the next rich guy" drives traffic & clicks, Id say?
