[VIDEO] This was discussed last nite on Tim Pool's podcast, the appointment of former World Economic Forum (WEF) Chairwoman Linda Yaccarino as the new CEO of Twitter. Musk who still owns the platform will reduce his role as executive chairman & Chief Tech Officer.
I see the concerns of many including a man named Billboard Chris - he's known for protesting the idea of gender transition of children - about Yaccarino taking over the platform.
During her interview with you, she was most excited about your initiative to limit reach of tweets which are deemed hateful. “Freedom of speech, not freedom of reach.”

In fact, that was her main selling point to the advertising exes in the audience, as she kept coming back to…
Yaccarino is known for advertising/marketing and one idea here is to help bring advertisers back to the platform. However, many have issues with someone associated with the WEF taking over a platform which has made great strides as far as free speech since Musk bought Twitter late last year. So far Musk is standing behind this appointment where Yaccarino is scheduled to start in six weeks.
I hear your concerns, but don’t judge too early. I am adamant about defending free speech, even if it means losing money.
