i think sheryl sandberg in particular is a well reversed spokesperson for the company. so, even though he has had more experience going into these tv interviews and other places. you just don't know what happens in congressional hearings. these executives can be as prepared as they possibly could be and you still have these revealing moments coming out of left field. none of these companies want their senior executives to be trotted in front of members of congress who have access to grind. emily: folks we have talked to the google is missing an opportunity by not sending a higher level representative. what could the repercussions of that be down the line? if congress is looking serious at regulations. david: i think you saw two senators say they will not be part of the solution and, if that is the case, we do not want them here. of all these companies, google has been the most targeted by , thecers like the ftc here long investigation of the company, but then they have the ongoing issue -- investigation in europe resulting in fines amounting to something like seven or $

one of the things that sheryl sandberg noticed was that she climbed up the hierarchy in heca er. people stopped giving her negative feedback.wi sheryl's obses feedback in fact she's been told that she ask for too much feedback as a point of feedback. one of the things that i've watched her do in meetings is she'll open a meeting by giving herself negative feedback out loud. saying something like "i know i talk too much in meetings and i'm trying to work on that." the other thing she often does is she'll open a meeting and gon through the ag and then go around the room and ask for every single person to give their viewpoint before she shares hers so that people aren't catering, you know, their opinion to what they think the boss wants to hear. when i was 26 i was barely out of grad school and i got signed up to teach half day class in motivation and after i committed, i found out it was going to be generals andls colon the u.s. air force. i was half their age. like they were right out of the movie top gun. i walked in and i felt like i have to establish my credentials. so, i talked

lisa: meanwhile, top tech execs like the facebook coo sheryl sandberg and twitter ceo jack dorsey arethe senate on wednesday. joining us is a bloomberg opinion columnist. we have heard this tough talk from president trump with the big tech companies before. i guess now that there is a question of what to do either unilaterally or with support from congress. >> i think we have seen a little bit of follow from the president's remarks. senator orrin hatch sent a letter to the ftc asking them to essentially reopen or consider reopening an antitrust investigation into google that the federal trade commission close a number of years ago. i think that could be a direct result of the president's comments on these antitrust to situations involving big tech giants. caroline: meanwhile, conservative advocacy groups are suing google and facebook, billions of dollars in damages they are seeking for what they called conspiring to censor political posts. this is not really grounded in fact, but how much can we hear any sort of reasonable argument coming from jack dorsey and sheryl sandberg when they

on a conference call just yesterday, facebook's chief operating officer, sheryl sandberg, said, quote is an arms race. it is never done. let's go to dylan byers who joins me now from los angeles. this is scary and it is still happening and facebook saw it and is trying to do what it can about it. do we know for sure this is linked to russia, these accounts? >> well, we don't. facebook did -- has not publicly acknowledged that it is linked to russia but in private, in conversations with lawmakers, they said that it very much appears to be linked to russia. but that is ultimately a responsibility that facebook wants to put on congress and reasonably so. look, since 2016, it's become harder for facebook to clearly identify ties to russia. part of the reason for that is that the efforts of the people behind these misinformation campaigns, they've grown much more sophisticated. so when sheryl sandberg says, this is an arms race, this is something that isn't going to end, it is for that very reason. so facebook powers time, money, manpower into this issue. 20,000 staffers dedicated to this

it hasn't offered up someone at the level of sheryl sandberg.t's invoked the ire of those who are holding the hearing, who say google has to send its ceo. there is a bit of a stalemate. that's something else that threatens to cause the company heart burn if it comes to testify. >> we saw what happened yesterday. it was pretty quiet. maybe, in part, because there's a few other things going on. but the white house quietly blocked bipartisan legislation to protect election systems from future attacks. it is worth remembering the dni, dan coats, the director of national intelligence, said weeks ago that the threat to our election is, quote, blinking red. is there a sense that this that was just blocked by the white house could have actually helped? >> yeah, this is the concern that lawmakers have right now. i talked to senator mark warner a few days ago. he said on one hand, the intelligen intelligen intelligence community is out there pointing to signs suggesting there's troubles heading into the 2018 election. on the other hand, there's been silen

on a conference call about this yesterday, facebook ceo sheryl sandberg said "security is an arms race and it's never done. let's go to dylan buyers, a reporter who joins me with more. facebook has invested so much money, so much time, so much effort into fighting this but it goes to show that it persists. do they know definitively this is russia? >> they don't know definitively, poppy, it's russia but all signs point to some level of russian involvement. so much activity looks similar to what facebook found after the 2016 election. the difference this time is that facebook is getting ahead of it. they are bringing it to congress's attention ahead of the midterms so that's progress on facebook's front but the larger picture here is exactly what you brought up -- this is a problem they can never fully solve. it's not something that can be prevented, simply something that can be monitored and then called out and like you said, they have invested so much money, so much time and manpower, a staff of 20,000 people monitoring this sort of thing. it's immense but what it shows is that this is

we are seeing sheryl sandberg, jack dorsey prepare to testify before congress next week. mark zuckerberg, going earlier this year, completely unprecedented. what a direction could congress take? max: you're going to see a number of things on the table. some will be aimed at election interference. you've seen the introduction of what's known as the honest ads act, requiring transparency in advertising on social media. you are likely to see more legislation introduced about privacy protections, really requiring the consent of subscribers before social media can use your information, your data, giving you more control over it, not the company the ability to profit from it. in the more extreme case, perhaps what donald trump was referring to yesterday, really treating social media companies as common carriers, as utilities, something that his old advisor, steve bannon, had pushed, and really requiring equal treatment, nondiscrimination from these companies. that would be very aggressive. ironically, it conflicts with of first amendment views some of the judges that president

emily: sheryl sandberg, also pretty high up there, $2 million and change on personal security. much do you think this increase has to do with what's been happening with cambridge analytica, russia, controversies in myanmar? posts that many say have led to violence? >> it could definitely have an impact. if a company gets bad press, typically it is executives that can be targeted for threats. we saw that in the aftermath of the financial crisis when many banks started upping their security. when herbalife was targeted by bill ackman. its ceoe also equipped with more security. there are also totally personal reasons for this. mark zuckerberg now has two young kids. he had his second daughter last year. it could be that he just wants to up his security for his little family. it could be that relatives or extended family members have gotten threats or are just not feeling comfortable. it could fall on him to pick up the bill for that. emily: and you go into great detail about what these costs actually are, right down to bulletproof windows. tell us where the money is spent. >> it's

emily: let's listen to sheryl sandberg making that refrain about security being an arms race. >> securitys an arms race and is never done. we made it harder for inauthentic actors to operate on facebook. yet, we face well-funded adversaries that will not give up and are constantly changing tactics. that means we need to constantly improve as well. we are investing heavily in security so we can find an address the threats. we have improved our ai so we can more effectively detect and block fake accounts. emily: is facebook doing enough? you have critics out there who continue to say no. sarah: one thing that facebook needs is cooperation from the government at a level where they are not the sole national security helper for the united states. emily: are they getting that? sarah: they are. i asked that question on the call and they said they are happy about increased collaboration they are seeing from intelligence agencies, congress, but they do not want to get to a point where they are saying we are going to analyze this and try to figure out the motivation behind these actors. all they ca

emily: he talked about trying to hire a number two including sheryl sandberg. i talked about this a couple years ago. he looked a few times for a number two and has never been able to find one. does he really want one? why hasn't that happened? ashlee: i do not think so. even before cheryl and tony bates, the ceo of skype. he had a meeting with elon. before that, tony fidel was brought in at one point, and possibly be what he thought was the ceo. you have this disconnect on who is doing what. that was 6, 7, 8 years ago. this has been going on forever. you get the feeling that elon is setting the bar incredibly high and has some sort of hangup about being able to turn over control. which is funny because if you look at the president of spacex, she has been doing that for many years and it has worked great. spacex, which should be the harder company, is the more reliable company of the two. emily: that goes to show the value of a number two. at the end of the interview, he talked about if you can find another coo who can do the job better than me, they can have i

and again, facebook's ceo -- coo, sheryl sandberg, has said this is an arms race that you can never completely a game of whack a mole. at the end of the day, every election cycle we are going to see this issue. the silver lining is that facebook is finally getting ahead of the problem as opposed to being behind the problem. >> what's next? let's see. >>> joining me now, director for a group that partnered with facebook to monitor disinformation campaigns. he was a top aide, also to president obama on cyber security. graham, thanks for coming in. you studied these accounts. you've studied these ads. you know what facebook's talking about here. do you think russia is the one behind this? this time? >> i think that based on looking at some of the pages that facebook took action against yesterday, what we can tell is that the content, the tactics, the language, was very similar to that that we saw coming from the infamous st. petersburg russia troll farm from 2014 through 2017. i would say the behavior correlates very highly with what we've seen previously. >> do you think it is wrong or premature

if we get jack dorsey and sheryl sandberg, i think they're going to quiz them.y don't quiz them on whether conservatives can speak up, they should talk about issues of the meddling in the elections, they should talk about privacy, they should talk about how did their platforms get hijacked by the russian government. these are critical issues, not whether donald trump is loud enough on the internet, which i think he is. i feel he has plenty of voice. >> i was just going to say the internet has been good to donald trump. >> donald trump should send tech a gold embossed thank you note for the things that it has done, giving him tools and all kinds of ways to get in office. >> so i guess -- you want me to say to regulate -- >> no, no, no. is the strindustry ready to com and say we know we've gotten this big and we need help figuring x out. >> right. >> are they ready to do that with government? >> ink auto they have to engage more with government but as you saw with the zuckerberg hearings, the politicians are clueless about technology. >> it's embarrassing. >> it i

facebook's sheryl sandberg, and twitter's jack dorsey. it's part of the investigation into how russians created chaos to influence voters here in 2016. google's ceo was invited also. his response? thanks but no thanks. he offered up the chief legal officer. senate intel said, not good enough. we need somebody higher up. google will not be at the hearing. the heads of the committee are not thrilled. that is not the only storm headed google's way. there is another building down pennsylvania avenue from here, over at the white house. the president is claiming google's search engines, quote, show only the viewing/reporting of the fake news media and are suppressing the voices of conservatives. google fired back, saying the search engine results are not biased. here's our question, if the trump administration were to act on the claims, use it as a reason to regulate one of the world's most powerful companies, what would the implications be? joining me is technology policy reporter at the "washington post." anna and gabby with also with me. ton

when wk forward at what's going on with mid-terms, we2sg e both sheryl sandberg, the chief operating officer of facebook, saying this is something that's evolving. listen to what she had to say to a group call.rt estoday on the >> it's clear that whoever set up these accounts went to much entities than theo obscure their russian-based internet agency ira did in the run up to the u.s. presidential election. security is an arms race and it's never done. we've made it harder for unauthentic ors to operate on facebook, but we face determined, well-fundeved aries who won't give up and who are constantly changing tactics. >> thesey are rea evolving threats. the mid-terms are a real target here. you mention, there were already two democratic senators who have been targed, claire mccaskill of missouri an jeanne shaheen. these hackers are looking at these people and saying, i want to target this pinch because i know what their beliefs are. tomorrow there will be a senate hearing about foreign influence on social media,o this is something that's definitely going to keep going on. >> yang: yami

i'm afraid, given past experience, sheryl sandberg will not be candid.n candid about this and repeated public appearances. jack dorsey tries harder to be honest and constructive, but it is hard given the concerns of congress. people get a ton of questions about this issue we are discussing now which is right-wing bias. they will have to come back with a reply on that. a lot of questions from congress are not intelligent. they don't have a deep grasp on how the systems work, but i think having discussions in congress is beneficial. better than nothing. joe: the issue of "shadow banning" on twitter seems to be a myth. i've not seeing compelling evidence that that is a real thing. we have seen a lot of people called to twitter to remove info wars and other particularly inflammatory actors from their platform. what would you advise jack to do when he gets these calls to remove certain people for going over some line? david: twitter way more than facebook has operated on a principle approach, but they don't ban people except in the most egregious circumstance

it also comes, we should point out, just before sheryl sandberg, the c.o.o., is due to testify next week at a senate hearing about social media manipulation in elections. what has facebook said about this? not a whole lot. it was reported in this "times" account that people within facebook complained about this political diversity idea to h.r. and were told sorry, but it doesn't break facebook rules or regulations so you know, you're just going to have to live with it. i think it does point to the atmosphere, at least according to this engineer, that exists in these social media companies and that's going to be a big question in congress next week when sandberg and others in the social media world have to face those politicians. kristina: very much so. especially the fact you did bring up that it's a small portion, 100 out of thousands and thousands of employees. but timing is everything, right? all of this is coming out a week before all of the hearings and testimony next week. thank you very much, ashley. >> my pleasure. david: here to react, media research

sheryl sandberg saying for the social platform, this is an arms race.ge in tone now and openness about what they need to do? >> yeah, they are really turning this almost into a political mission. i mean, look, they're doing advertisements all over the place now, tv, radio -- >> old school medium, right? >> old school mediums, yeah. they're doing facebook too. they're doing videos too. here we were connecting the world and something went wrong. they're trying to show they're making a good faith effort. you can see in this last announcement how complicated it is. they didn't want to attribute this to russia. the story we reported yesterday said twitter gave almost identical accounts to congress about six weeks ago that they did attribute to the russian ira, to the internet research agency, and these were accounts that were almost identical, so you're looking and saying why -- facebook won't attribute it to russia for political reasons, but think about the problem that causes for real world people. their events are taken down and don't know if it was tied

and this is a hearing at which sheryl sandberg from facebook and jack dorsey from twitter are going tong itself is likely to be a train wreck because of what trump has said here. but from google's perspective, they are behaving as though they're above having to answer to governments for actions. they're doing something similar in europe. i personally think that is insane. i don't understand how their board of directors can allow this to happen. i can understand if you're running a tech company and things have been going well for a long time at facebook and google, you can get blinded to your civic responsibility. that's why you have a board of directors. the response of the tech companies to all of these issues has been brain damaged. >> let me ask you this. president trump seems to be floating an idea of a conservative social media outlet, like conservative facebook. don junior told axios if trump supporters were to create that sourt of thing, facebook like social network, he'd encourage trump supporters to switch to it. evaluate that idea for me. >> first i would encourage everyone w

interview with the paper, he said the company approached facebook's sheryl sandberg but there is no activeearch right now. a nine-month crypto gold rush is over. sales dried up faster than expected. investors ignored growth in its main markets and ditch the stocks, which fell in extended trading. mining have helped stoke demand. that was your bloomberg business flash. nejra: thank you so much. turkey's finance minister has said he won't impose capital controls and underscored the need to rein in inflation and narrow the worst current account deficit and years. contagion could hit emerging and developed markets. exposed to turkey, i would reduce exposure. i think turkey is trying to rewrite the crisis management chapter in the playbook for emerging markets. it is trying to go without interest rate hikes, it is trying to do it without the imf. it is not impossible but it is hard. u.s. treasury secretary steven mnuchin and threatened more sanctions of the nation didn't release an american pastor. the cio of saxo bank is still with us. we have seen a big market reaction to what is happening in
