TikTok tells advertisers it’s ‘optimistic about finding the best path forward.’
The app is set to be shut off in the US at midnight on Saturday after losing its appeal to the Supreme Court. TikTok president Blake Chandlee just sent this to advertisers:
This is a rapidly evolving situation, and we’re working quickly with our legal and policy teams to assess the situation and provide clear, accurate updates for our valued partners. We’re optimistic about finding the best path forward.
Rest assured, we’ll be in touch with more details and next steps ahead of the Sunday, January 19 deadline.
He then links to CEO Shou Chew’s reaction video, which makes clear the company is banking on Trump saving it from a ban.
