Has the spread of social media and the virality of the speed at which communication happens today contributed to the 2023 banking crisis? have cyber flash-mobs helped create the problem afflicting the European and US banking system? This is a really interesting seven minute discussion between Fareed Zakaria (CNN) and Gillian Tett. There is a neat example of game theory in here as well!
