Some days ya just don't know where to start. It was projected that the Dow was going to open strong this morning. That didn't happen but what did happen is our first story:
It's enough to make you shiver;
To drive customers into its store J.C. Penny will sell....
General Electric a "fraud bigger than Enron"? Yikes;
Big back to school items are...bullet proof. We're not kidding;
Walmart "open" to the discussion of banning assault weapons.
Those stories plus a conversation with Dr. Chris Draper the author of Violicity Economics...where we start out but the main focus of our visit is about "deep-fakes" and making sure what you have created is what you created and when it was created. Sound...deep? Meet the founder of Trokt and Hang on this will be something for you to hear.

Deep Fakes and Protecting Work with Dr. Chris Draper
Thursday Aug 15, 2019
Thursday Aug 15, 2019
A returning visitor to the Business News Hour is Dr. Chris Draper the author of Violicity Economics and founder of Trokt. We start out talking economics before we launch into the real reason we're together. Dr. Draper, quite by accident, has learned about document and document storage. But, more than that, in a court of law, how do you prove what you have in your hand is original? After all, it could be a "deep-fake". Mind bending? A bit...but listen in as he explains what he learned and how block-chain solves a major problem for creators of every type.
