CrowdStrike CEO Can’t Explain WORLDWIDE Internet Failure!
Hospitals, banks, airports, airlines and broadcasters worldwide were impacted by a massive, ongoing IT outage Friday. Thousands of Windows PCs, which many companies and organizations rely on as part of their critical internet infrastructure, were hit by the CrowdStrike outage. Perhaps most concerning, several US states reported that their emergency 911 call centers were also hit. The outage was blamed on a faulty update from cybersecurity company CrowdStrike. The company handles the security of many Windows PCs and services around the world. In a statement Friday morning, CrowdStrike said the issue had been "identified, isolated and a fix has been deployed." Jimmy discusses the shameless TV interview given by casually attired CrowdStrike CEO George Kurtz, who refused to answer basic questions or take any responsibility for the global tech catastrophe his company caused. Plus segments on loony Rachel Maddow’s conclusion that Trump VP pick JD Vance is a far right wacko because he’s a fan of Lord of the Rings, the Teamsters’ Union president addressing the RNC and wild accusations that Iran was behind the assassination attempt on Donald Trump. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae. And a phone call from Joe Biden!
