The idea of a reporter or reporters helping our situation is fantasy. They'll try to write something, the company will push back and that'll go nowhere. Better to roll out while you can!
@1gua+1rS5inZY I don’t think anyone is too intelligent in this deal. Edx just likes to pretend they’re intelligent.
Lol what happened? One greedy really intelligent company got another greedy company not so intelligent company to over pay for their company. The not so intelligent company then thought they would leverage the “organic” leads that came to the intelligent greedy company for free classes and thought these students would then convert and pay $100,000 for a degree program.
Lol what happened? They sold their company. Next question.
What happened? People who think they are smarter than everyone and that their farts are rose-scented were given the opportunity to scam people. Then they got bought by even bigger id--ts.
