"Most people in this town stab you in the back, but [Kara] stabbed me in the front, and I appreciate that -- John McLaughlin, former host, The McLaughlin Group She has a coffee before bed every night, after midnight. This seems somehow emblematic to me. (In a good way) -- Ben Smith, media writer guy and other reportrepreneur besides Kara A force in the industry -- Meredith Kopit Levien, CEO, The New York Times It is a constant joke in the Valley when people write memos for them to say, ""I hope Kara never sees this"" -- Sheryl Sandberg, former COO, Facebook (before it was called Meta, in order to hide in plain sight) She's willing to get into the brawl with me -- Ari Emanuel, Endeavor CEO and well-known brawler There she was with a front- row seat to the mining of great intellectual property - using technology, really - as a means of creating value [and] in effect turned the results of her own reporting on herself -- Bob Iger, CEO of Disney, two times Part of the power of her podcast is there's a sense of somebody who has been here the whole time and is kind of fed up -- Casey Newton, tech journalist (and former renter of Kara’s guest cottage in San Francisco) Kara has become so shrill at this point that only dogs can hear her -- Elon Musk, Tesla guy, May 2023 I have rarely seen evil in as pure a form as Yoel Roth and Kara Swisher's heart is filled with seething hate. I regard their dislike of me as a compliment -- Elon Musk (who could use a compliment these days), September 2023"

I regard their dislike of me as a compliment -- Elon Musk (who could use a compliment these days), September 2023 Swisher, the bad-ass journalist and OG chronicler of Silicon Valley . . . takes no prisoners in this highly readable look at the evolution of the digital world . . . Bawdy, brash and compulsively thought-provoking, just like its author, Burn Book sizzles * Booklist *"
