“we sit down with Adam Selipsky, who is ceo of Amazon Web Services”

Jim Cramer, host of Mad Money, writing on X 28 June 2022 Post by @jimcramer on X, 2022-06-28 (X)

On the 2022-06-28 Mad Money episode, Jim Cramer interviews Adam Selipsky, CEO of Amazon Web Services.

Resolved true The record shows it happened or was so.

Said for an organisation they lead or work for; it counts on both records.

What would count as true or false

True: a Mad Money episode aired on 2022-06-28 (or a CNBC segment or clip dated that day presented as a Mad Money interview) includes Cramer interviewing Adam Selipsky, and Selipsky was CEO of Amazon Web Services at that time. Mostly true: the Selipsky interview aired as stated but on an adjacent day (within 1–2 days), or a minor detail of the description is off. Mostly false: Cramer interviewed Selipsky, but in a different program or in a period clearly separate from that date, or the interview was with a different AWS executive. False: no such interview took place around that date, or Selipsky did not hold the AWS CEO role then.

Evidence

  1. AWS CEO says the move to cloud computing is only just ... CNBC · 28 June 2022 Own record
    “Cloud computing is in its beginning stages and will only continue to grow, Amazon Web Services CEO Adam Selipsky told CNBC's Jim Cramer on Tuesday.”
  2. AWS CEO says the move to cloud computing is only just ... CNBC · 28 June 2022 Own record
    “"It's possible that AWS could become the largest business at Amazon. Now, Amazon has other large and great businesses, and so it could take a while for us to get there," Selipsky said in an interview on "Mad Money."”
  3. Adam Selipsky to Succeed Andy Jassy as Amazon Web Services CEO GovConWire · 24 March 2021
    “will return to AWS on May 17 and spend a few weeks transitioning before taking over to lead the business sometime in the third quarter of 2021, Jassy said in an email to AWS employees.”

Reasoning

A CNBC article dated 2022-06-28 says AWS CEO Adam Selipsky spoke to Jim Cramer "on Tuesday" (E1). June 28, 2022 was a Tuesday. The same article says the interview was for "Mad Money" (E2). GovConWire (E3) reported in 2021 that Selipsky would take over as AWS CEO in the third quarter of 2021, and CNBC's 2022-06-28 article describes him as AWS CEO at the time of the interview (E1).
