Friday newspaper round-up: Netflix, Home Reit, FTX
(Sharecast News) - Netflix co-founder Reed Hastings, the entrepreneur who reshaped the media landscape and led the charge into streaming, announced he is stepping down as co-chief executive of the company on Thursday. Hastings, 62, co-founded the company in 1997 when Netflix delivered its subscribers movies on DVDs sent in the mail, will become chairman. Greg Peters, the company's chief product and chief operating officer, will join Ted Sarandos, chief content officer, as a co-chief executive. Sarandos was elevated to co-CEO in July 2020. - Guardian The US should not be "playing games" with the debt ceiling, the JP Morgan chief executive, Jamie Dimon, warned warring US political factions on Thursday as a heated row over the federal borrowing limit reached a crisis point. "We should never question the creditworthiness of the US government. That is sacrosanct and it should never happen," Dimon said on Thursday in an interview on CNBC. "This is not something we should be playing games with at all." - Guardian

However, a few days earlier its business model and practices were attacked by a short-seller, plunging it into chaos. - The Times
