Why I’m trying to buy TikTok, with Project Liberty's Frank McCourt

Next week, TikTok’s parent company, Bytedance, will appear in court as the U.S. government moves to force the Chinese company to shutter or sell its wildly popular social platform. Investor and former LA Dodgers owner Frank McCourt is preparing a consortium bid to buy the app — and access to its 170 million users. McCourt joins Rapid Response to explain the national security case against Bytedance, take us inside the story of his TikTok bid, and reveal how he would use the platform to address a central crisis of our digital age.
