Let’s be honest, who hasn’t wanted to dump a bucket of ice water over Kara Swisher?
Well, CNBC got the chance today, doing it on air.
Re/code’s co-CEO was the latest to take the ice bucket challenge, an effort to raise awareness for ALS, a.k.a. Lou Gehrig’s disease.
For her part, Kara challenged Yahoo CEO Marissa Mayer, Rupert Murdoch and Jennifer Beals.
Kara joins a who’s who of tech executives including Apple CEO Tim Cook, Google’s Sergey Brin and Larry Page, Microsoft’s Satya Nadella, AT&T’s Ralph de la Vega and T-Mobile’s John Legere.

Will you support Vox’s explanatory journalism?
Most news outlets make their money through advertising or subscriptions. But when it comes to what we’re trying to do at Vox, there are a couple reasons that we can't rely only on ads and subscriptions to keep the lights on.
First, advertising dollars go up and down with the economy. We often only know a few months out what our advertising revenue will be, which makes it hard to plan ahead.
Second, we’re not in the subscriptions business. Vox is here to help everyone understand the complex issues shaping the world — not just the people who can afford to pay for a subscription. We believe that’s an important part of building a more equal society. We can’t do that if we have a paywall.
That’s why we also turn to you, our readers, to help us keep Vox free. If you also believe that everyone deserves access to trusted high-quality information, will you make a gift to Vox today?
