Blaze

NBC Universal chairman of Global Advertising and Partnerships Linda Yaccarino is in discussions to serve as Twitter’s CEO, the Wall Street Journal reported, citing unnamed people. The New York Times, citing two unnamed people, has reported that Elon Musk is in discussions to hire the woman for the role.

Elon Musk announced on Thursday that he has hired someone to serve as CEO of the social media platform and that she will begin the job in around six weeks, though he did not divulge the woman’s identity.

“Excited to announce that I’ve hired a new CEO for X/Twitter. She will be starting in ~6 weeks! My role will transition to being exec chair & CTO, overseeing product, software & sysops,” Musk tweeted. “The commitment to open source transparency and accepting a wide range of viewpoints remains unchanged,” Musk also tweeted on Thursday. read more

  1. From TGP: “Yaccarino’s biography states she is an executive chairman of Klaus Schwab’s notorious World Economic Forum (WEF), which brings together globalist political, corporate, and non-governmental organization elites every year at the Davos resort in Switzerland to push its Great Reset agenda.”

    Good times.

  2. I read a column about this woman where, yes, she follows the Libs of Tik Tok, but also conservative commentators. She’s a marketing person, so she needs to know all angles. Let’s give her a chance. I don’t think Musk will tolerate wokeism. She just might build X into the powerhouse Musk anticipates. He can always fire her.

  3. The key is that the shareholders still control content through the board and through their voting.
    And by shareholders, of course, I mean Musk.
    I don’t expect any controls over content beyond the current status. If she is good on the marketing side, then all is good.

    You can now subscribe to Elon’s feed for $4 per month. He has 160 million followers, if 10% subscribed… the $44B he paid may very likely turn out to be a profitable investment! And he is operating on something like 10% of the staff, and Twitter was break-even with all of those employees.
    Note: I’m not paying anything to Twitter. Social media just isn’t worth it to me, at least unless I have a business reason to pay for something.

  5. I have never subscribed to twitter, but i’m likely to do so because of Tucker – depending on the fee of course, as there will be one.

    Musk is still sitting on the fence, so he seems to be going back and forth politically. Unlike others that appear to be moderate, I do believe Musk is honest about his decisions. Call me what you will, but he is unique in the rich and powerful arena, just as Trump is. They are quite different from each other as well.

    We are plagued with interesting times.

  6. Twitter is going to go the route Sirius Radio did with Howard Stern. Sirius Radio paid Stern $100 million for 5 years. 33,000 subscribers turned into millions of subscribers.
    Looks like Elon is going to do the same with Tucker Carlson for Twitter.
    Smart people do smart things.

  7. As James Woods mentioned in his tweet. She is a woke WEF puppet.
    There is also a video of her interviewing Elon Musk demanding him to moderate Twitter content.
    Expect Twitter to go back to what it was before Elon purchased it. Not that shadow banning and other garbage stopped, but at least it was a bit better than before.
    All will be back to what it was.

  8. I’m on the fence. But if Elon made a mistake and doesn’t correct it, he’s really blown his cache. I can’t image him being that foolish, can you?

  9. Musk is not really a mystery. I have posted prior here an other places. Just take a bit of time to look into who he has made babies with…Grimes. Listen to the words in her “songs”. This women is demon possessed and fully on board with transhuman (as is Musk).
