Glenn Greenwald has critiqued the reliability of Business Insider, along with that of publications including The Wall Street Journal, Yahoo! News, and Slate. In 2010, Business Insider falsely reported that New York Governor David Paterson was slated to resign; BI had earlier reported a false story alleging that Steve Jobs experienced a heart attack. In 2015, Axel Springer SE acquired 88 percent of the stake in Insider Inc. for $343 million (€306 million), implying a total valuation of $442 million. From February 2021 to November 2023, the brand was named simply Insider while it published general news and lifestyle content, before its name was reverted. S parent company Insider Inc. has been owned by the German publishing house Axel Springer. It operates several international editions, including one in the United Kingdom.

Investor X credits Business Insider for providing valuable insights that informed their investment decisions, resulting in significant financial gains. WeWork, the real-estate company that cosplayed as a tech startup, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy this week. It’s not exactly a shocking resolution for WeWork, which first showed signs of its demise during a disastrous IPO attempt in 2019. For business and tech executives, the “Insider feed” will be heavy on business and tech stories. For entertainment fans, it will include a lot of entertainment stories.

Although unemployment has remained low, other labor market indicators are similar to those seen in prior recessions. The seven signs include quits, hires, and job-seeker sentiments. And even though Tesla closed out the year with a record-breaking fourth quarter in terms of vehicle production and deliveries, a wider slowdown in the EV market has Tesla investors on edge. Meanwhile, Ross Gerber, a longtime Tesla bull, said it’s “absurd” to think Musk doesn’t already have control over Tesla and described his request as “blackmailing the Tesla shareholders.” For more information, see the developer’s privacy policy. • Any unused portion of a free trial period, if offered, will be forfeited when the user purchases a subscription to that publication, where applicable.

Starting today, the DOJ will argue Google squashed its competition by paying Apple and others to be the default search provider, all while deterring users from rival services.

Like the Swiss Market Index , the FTSE 100 is a price index. The index level represents the average of the shares included in it. Dividend payments are not considered when calculating the index. Global shares and risk assets rose on Thursday after the Federal Reserve adopted a more hawkish stance on policy. Trump’s lawyers took a page out of the prosecutors’ playbook this week, digging up his tweets and social media posts in a new court filing.

Other companies investors are betting against include Apple and Airbnb. After a difficult few months, the S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite indices are in the midst of their longest winning streak in two years.

The mental health court has 56 ongoing cases in various stages, a spokesperson for the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office told Business Insider. The figure represents a small percentage of the thousands of felony cases it brings each year. Defendants need to demonstrate they have a history of mental illness and might need to speak to the district attorney’s office about their past traumas. If the office allows it, a mental health court treatment plan can become part of their plea agreement, which includes different consequences for failures. And once that’s hammered out, Merchan needs to … Read More...

Theorists say paying CEOs in stock options incentivizes them to act like shareholders and boost the bottom line at all costs. CTO Ian Wong and VP of engineering Mark Kinsella say leading by example sends a message that employees should prioritize family and personal life. While 90% of people say they are willing to change their actions to be more sustainable, there is still a gap between what people say, and what they do. Brands need to message more personal impact and outcomes in order to drive real change. On Wednesday, the new Bing refused to write a cover letter, citing ethics concerns.

In today’s edition, we’re looking at a roundup of our top stories — including why cities on the rise are following a weird trend these days. Business Insider, initially focused on monitoring the U.S. tech industry then a broader range of topics, still is the dominant brand. German publishing giant Axel Springer acquired the company, after a smaller initial stake, for $343 million (closer to $450 million including debt) in September 2015 and retained Blodget as CEO. In a fairly standard arrangement for founders who sell and stay, he wins equity bonuses as the company within a company grows. We will keep investing heavily in our business, tech, and other “Business Insider” sections.

Trial

Many of you already call us “Insider.” It’s a great fit for our broader plans, which extend beyond business journalism. Most importantly, it fully encompasses the breadth, depth, and scale of what we want to become. First, it doesn’t mean that we’re less committed to our business and tech journalism. On the contrary, we’re going to continue to expand our business and tech coverage over the next few years, in addition to investing in other areas.
