rockefeller, jr. first rockefeller center had nothing to do with john d rockefeller senior. despite the picture of rockefeller center on the cover of ron cherno's great biography of john senior titan. he never set foot in the place. it was entirely the creation of his very unlikely son, john d jr. was very difficult growing up the sun of john d rockefeller senior. this was a very serious seriously religious family practicing a form of hellfire baptism. baptistism might be best characterized by what john d jr's mother once said to a friend that i'm so glad that john has told me what he wants for christmas so it can be denied him. this young man bearing the burden of the name john d rockefeller on his very frail shoulders entered the business world in 1897. in his father's office at 26 broadway within a few years. he got involved in his first business venture, which was a calamity. he lost all the money he invested in it. he mismanaged it and he ran from business immediately thereafter and the rest of his very long life until he lived to be 85 the only other business venture.

i want to be bigger than ford carnegie and rockefeller put together. that's how great hollywood line and a quotable line, but you know that didn't happen. in fact, madam walker's estate. villa lawaro is in irvington, new york in westchester county and rockefellers. beautiful estate kaikit is about five miles away. they never met in real life and she didn't walk over to his, you know to his estate while he was i was he skeet shooting or playing. okay, i care whatever but no that didn't really happen, but it is a way to show that she was asserting herself by building a home in westchester county and one of the wealthiest communities in america. and so did you say that does your family on the walker building in annapolis? so the walker the madam walker legacy center is a non-profit center. that was it was a the headquarters for the company and then it became a non-profit entity in the early 80s. okay, so at the time how was she portrayed in the media in the press? every and she was really very smart again in our marketing and in developing relationships w

the rockefeller foundation together with the international monetary fund and many other partners have proposed the new allocation of international monetary fund effectively and reserve currency be allocated and then used in part to invest in a massive new effort to vaccinate everyone everywhere. it will generate 40 or $50 billion of the next few years and that could help accelerate the achievement of herd immunity -- immunization never on the planet by the end of next year. second we need to turn additional public resources into vaccines that are available and accessible everywhere and that will require a different way of thinking about how we manufacture the vaccine. the reality is production has largely been absorbed by the wealthiest nations to date and that's not unexpected but we now need to change that and make sure it's much more extensible to other so i welcome the conversation on intellectual property. we know intellectualio property alone doesn't feel vaccine to go-go to people's arms. unique technology transport and production facilities. we need to use it aunts purchase co

and he came under the auspices of the rockefellers who fellow named robert? now who worked for the rockefeller family took him over and basically acted as his guide from that point on. he was very unhappy in the bahamas and in june. he went to coronavaca in mexico at that point. he was showing really very serious signs of illness. he had a cancerous node in his neck and he had been diagnosed by his doctors elsewhere with a second form of cancer. he didn't however tell the rockefellers or the us government. what was the matter with him? is illness had been a secret from the beginning and it remained that way. in october his french doctor who had been secretly treating him for almost five years. showed up in mexico to treat him and told the rockefellers and everybody else his whole story about the fact that he had been diagnosed with lymphoma in 1974 and had captured a secret this whole time at that point. there was a meeting of principles in the white house carter met with all of his top people secretary vance the surprise so forth. and they went around the ro

i mean, so for example in my three three years i lived with i was in a suite with david rockefeller and another guy spencer borden from the borden. i guess it's milk company folks and they their theory was that i would make rockefeller a better banker and i'm not quite sure what they felt he would make me better at but but you know, maybe i would understand why it's more or the system or whatever, but but they were really the good people in this in this journey. i was wondering if harvard is tuition was wanted you to succeed as you got out in 1963. did they try to get jobs for the 18 and get you in good spots to continue this success. if you go to harvard, you don't need any help. saying no. that's the thing. i mean it does give you an edge up. i mean what happened is like when i went into to advertising, i mean most of the and even even now if you look at some of the people in tv, i mean news, they're all from a lot of from ivy's ivy league schools, and it does give you a leg up even if it's sort of subconscious sometime, but you know if you like the 18 or did you find it they all had

use the very same scientists the man in frederick science who at that time was the president of rockefeller university and professor sides dr sites i should say he was the conduit for some $45000000.00 into baguio industry funding that was given to various scientists to look at every other possible explanation for why there might be lung cancer except for smoking cigarettes and this is very much in keeping with a now infamous line in public relations history where the public relations companies . one of tobacco perms wrote in an intro secret memo that from now on quote doubt is our product unquote in other words we're no longer selling cigarettes were no longer marketing kamler or smoke marlboro rather than extent now we are marketing the concept of doubt to tell the public to tell policymakers and especially government regulators the science isn't so clear about whether smoking causes cancer well does this sound familiar folks this is exactly what the oil industry has been doing since 991 to show those clips many of club president former president bush and prime minster badger sameness and

the vanderbilts, the roosevelts, the rockefellers. a lot of celebrities, caroline burke. we did hear. a lot of rioters got divorced here. so it was really something where people from every walk of life, from the most famous to people who just really needed to get a divorce and get out of the marriage came here. the process for divorce was very formal. it was taken very seriously here. because they knew that people were counting on this divorce being final and being recognized in other states. so the process was very straightforward. someone would arrive and they would meet with their attorney right away. they'd have to hire an attorney. the spouse who did not come would have to have an attorney in their stead, appearing on their behalf. but the person who was staying here and establishing residency would then have to stay in a place where he witnessed could testify that they had seen them every single day of that period, that they hadn't left the state, you know, they had been here the whole duration. and then when that period was up, which you know, when it was at its fa
