Controversy
When Jeff Horwitz appeared on NBC’s “Meet the News” to discuss Facebook’s terrible news, he donned a grey headband that matched his grey business jacket. When asked about the headband, he tweets,
The headband has been a fairly constant thing for me during a long and unusual Covid-time reporting assignment. I hope everyone who saw the show had a good time. When I awoke at 4 a.m. Pacific, I had two desires: to participate to a fruitful conversation about a world-changing technical venture or to wear a sport-coat embellished sweatband on national television. I am certain that I was successful in the latter.”
Mr. Horwitz’s NBC appearance had spurred imitators barely hours after it aired. Many of Mr. Horwitz’s supporters are upset that he is wearing a headband in an interview, with one asking, “What’s with the headband?” I’m utterly distracted during the first few minutes. You don’t require it as a source of distraction.”
