Day in the life of X/Twitter leadership
How it’s going: Current majority owner of X/Twitter Elon Musk have had a track record of posting and telling his followers about the downfall of legacy media platforms while promoting his company.
Showcase: Previous legacy media executive from NBC Linda Yaccarino was recruited as CEO of X/Twitter mid-2023 and shortly after was criticized by the public for not having the social app that she works for on her phone’s first page home screen, rather showcasing Meta’s social apps in an in-person 2023 Code interview.
Reportedly: With disinformation among other issues on X/Twitter according to journalists and government(s), people in Linda’s circle suggested to her to leave X/Twitter, but will she stay loyal and follow Elon and his social media platform by continuing her role or for how much longer?
