Observing him dodging questions and managing to deflect the heat of relatively tenacious and seasoned journalists is a sight to behold.
As irritating as it is impressive.
Politics might have been a better fit for him.
His mother ran a PAC which had large sums of money to spend on US politics... again with no accounting of where this money was coming from (likely customer funds).
His bullshit doesn't get challenged. This same media machine could make him an 'unperson' if they wanted. He has political capital in the sense that his going down may affect others. It is possible that it is these others that are likely being protected here.
As for "tenacious and seasoned journalists", my favorite these days is Whitney Webb:

That is tenacious journalism.

Just a p.s. regarding who is who. The David Tang character from the above article piqued my interest.
Wiki entirely forgets to mention this guy was chairman of SF Federal Reserve Board (as article mentioned in passing):
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Tang
"The Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco named David K.Y. Tang, a partner at law firm Preston Gates & Ellis, as chairman of its nine-member board of directors."
