In conversation with Diana Henriques

For the latest issue of perspectivves, Ziv Haddi connected with award-winning financial journalist and author, Diana Henriques, to discuss the rise and fall of disgraced Wall Street investor Bernie Madoff.
On this day one month ago, the memory of a painful chapter in financial history resurfaced with the news of Wall Street fraudster Bernie Madoff’s passing. He was 82. Once one of America’s most powerful and respected financiers, Madoff’s legacy would be defined by the vicious 17-year Ponzi scheme he orchestrated—the largest in history—that resulted in paper losses totalling $64.8-billion and ruined the lives of thousands of people. His actions also left a devastating toll on his closest family members including his sons Andrew and Mark, and his wife Ruth—none of whom were privy to his crimes but whose reputations were destroyed nevertheless. Madoff, in turn, was handed a 150-year prison sentence. Diana Henriques is an award-winning financial journalist who, as a staff writer for The New York Times, covered Madoff during the height of his success and also documented his dramatic fall which began with his arrest on December 11 of 2008.

In conversation with Arielle Pardes

Over the course of this pandemic year, and under the punishment of isolation, the thing we’ve arguably been craving the most is to be able to actually hear each other’s voices. To talk and to listen. Then Clubhouse, an audio-driven chat app, exploded onto the scene as an extremely effective tool in helping us to do just that. And, while it is invite-only (for now at least), it will likely develop into a fixture of our online worlds as we continue to adapt to new and creative ways of keeping in touch. Arielle Pardes is a senior writer at WIRED. She joined perspectivves to talk about the craze surrounding Clubhouse, her thoughts on the “darkside” of the app, and whether it can survive as social media giants like Twitter and Facebook work on introducing competing features of their own.

After seven years at The Verge, technology reporter Casey Newton has made the bold decision to pursue his own venture: a newsletter called Platformer. The focus, as he describes it, is on big tech and democracy. And it’s being published via Substack where a growing number of big names in the industry are turning to in order to build and manage their own reader following. Perspectivves caught up with Casey to find out why he made the move to independent journalism, his mission to continue holding powerful social media companies accountable, and whether he thinks Mark Zuckerberg can redeem himself.
