John Matze is the former CEO of Parler. You might recall, that’s the
social media app that became a favorite for far-right personalities
spreading conspiracies during the 2020 election. And he was fired in the
wake of the Jan. 6th insurrection, an attack he said at the time was not
Parler’s fault. Now, John is trying for a second act with a new app
that’s part social media, part news aggregator. On POLITICO Tech, John
tells host Steven Overly what he learned from his handling of the last
election and how exactly he plans to do things differently this time.
