The Night Eric Schmidt Joked About Killing Newspapers
How many times do you think Google's coitus king Eric Schmidt has ominously said "It's our money now"? At least once! And it was to Bob Woodward.
Eric Schmidt, who was CEO of Google at the time, was [at my home] for dinner with my wife [Elsa Walsh]. And we had known Schmidt for some time. I said to him, ‘It’s going to be on your tombstone: “I killed newspapers.”’ And he said, ‘No, I love newspapers.’ And I said, ‘But you’re taking all of our money!’ And he said, like a good CEO, ‘It’s our money now.’
Funny stuff. At least they were [at his home] and not [somewhere else].
