Negroponte sounds like a real dick.
More, from MIT’s Technology Review, on this week’s meeting:
Negroponte said that he prided himself on knowing over 80% of the billionaires in the US on a first-name basis, and that through these circles he had come to spend time with Epstein. Over the years, he had two dinners and one ride in Epstein’s private jet alone, where they spoke passionately about science. It was these interactions, he said, that warmed him to Epstein and made him confidently and enthusiastically recommend that Ito take the money.
His defense somehow got worse. “We all knew he went to jail for soliciting underage prostitution,” Negroponte told the. “But we thought he served his term and repented. I even discussed this new leaf with him.” Negroponte was surprised by Epstein’s more recent arrest , and, according to the, is only now somewhat regretful. “Yes, we are embarrassed and regret taking his money,” Negroponte said.
