NEW YORK (AP) — The new CEO of the company formerly known as Twitter says she’s spent much of the past eight weeks trying to get big brands back and advertising on the social media platform that’s been in upheaval since it was bought last year by Elon Musk.

    According to the article, Musk is the ideas guy and it’s her job to implement them. So when Twitter fails, he’ll say the ideas were great, it was an execution problem.

    She probably figures at her next job interview she’ll say it was a no win situation, but at least she accomplished (something).

      That makes sense, but what I mean is that everyone but his most drooling sycophants can tell he is the problem, and I doubt that his backers or the investors at Tesla and SpaceX will be fooled by this charade.

      Sure he can fire her as a symbolic gesture, but that won’t make any difference as far as trust in Twitter’s leadership goes.
