That his dog flokey was promoted to CEO of Twitter we can assume as well that Floki is stepping down now musk published his announcement on Twitter stating this he said I am excited to welcome Linda yakarino as the new CEO of Twitter and he noted he’s looking forward to working with Linda to
Transform this platform into X the everything app and X is the new name of the company they’re rolling out now public relations meanwhile well Reflections on this they’ve been very mixed actually it really started with people pointing December past positions her LinkedIn page notes that from January of 2019 actually until now it
Says on it still that in addition to her executive of chair position at the world economic forum she actually also sits on the Wes media entertainment and cultural industry Governors steering committee and it says she’s also highly engaged with the value in media initiative also of the wef now
If we go to the world economic Forum page on that specific committee it says this it says the media entertainment and information Governors Define the industry agenda the group comprising Chief Executives and chairs from partner organizations closely align the agenda with related systems with related system initiatives now the big concern with
Yakkarino now in a new position notably as chief executive of Twitter aligns with the Wes agenda of using Chief Executives for its own purposes now the wef states that the focus of the governors which she would be in on this includes developing AI as a Content
Platform and on the quote urgent need to restore content accountability in the media the value in media initiative of the wef meanwhile that’s actually a research project on the page it says it focuses on what it calls ecosystem media the world economic Forum page on that
Also notes it’s now in the second phase of that program and it’s looking to quote measure the value media generate in society focusing on new indicators of value such as quality Innovation and consumer welfare and identifying metrics that better represent media’s contribution to other Industries such as retail and e-commerce the WF describes
This as a strategic asset to access and monetize more lucrative parts of their businesses and it says these Enterprises are highly effective at combining technology and content to expand business models drive down marginal costs increase personalization and engagement widen methods of access and create new media formats entirely now
That doesn’t sound too political to me at least not the second one but with this and with this in mind Twitter users are likewise concerned that a new role the social media company is also going to serve the interests of the world economic forum now Elon Musk meanwhile he’s actually been responding
To a lot of these concerns on Twitter and responds to a post about yakarina’s background with NBC and the wef stating and here come the shadow bands again musk wrote this he says that will not be the case Twitter users took time to look into yakaruna’s history of tweets and also
The likes that she’s made on Twitter and the consensus actually now appears to be kind of well kind of confused to be honest now it appears that while she does seem to support a lot of social justice policies she has also promoted things that like you know wearing face
Masks on the during the coveted pandemic for example she also does appear to support some conservative narratives one Twitter user noted for example that yaccarino previously had actually liked tweets at tweet for example from journalist Jack passobic stating this so you do you guys remember that time the FBI found a judge
Who worked for Epstein to sign off on a raid of Mar-A-Lago and she also liked another tweet from Thomas Massey actually questioning the Integrity of the election systems in Arizona you know not necessarily things that people left normally would like but while yakarunu has some social justice views she actually also follows several
Conservative accounts those include Tucker Carlson Ben Shapiro TP USA Mark Levine Melania Trump as well as others and a lot of these are further down on her list which should which which do suggest that um you know she’s like them for quite a while or fall them for a while
Elon Musk did Express his belief that quote I think people from both sides of the political Spectrum will find Linda to be smart fair and reasonable and musk also expanded by stating exactly to a post from ma Ian miles Chung which states this Twitter must be a platform
For everyone it cannot be a ghetto for the right or the left there’s a reason platforms like gab Mastodon truth social and others fail to gain any traction with anyone let alone advertisers well so what’s going to become a Twitter in reality we’re going to have to see it
Does appear the new CEO does support Global initiatives that look to use platforms exactly like this to advance certain political agendas at the same time her Twitter feed does appear to avoid any signs of you know divisive politics and when she interviewed musk actually in April this year she also
Appeared relatively non-political and relatively non-divisive I watched her interview well thank you Elon it is such a treat and a special opportunity welcome to possible and while Greg was right everyone okay let’s have a round of applause um well Greg was right you really need no introduction now it’s likely that
This is Elon musk’s way of choosing someone who can appease really both sides of the political aisle her ties to the world economic forum and her interests in social justice policies they’re going to have to align with Elon musk’s repeated statements on his dedication to free speech and even
Though she’s CEO he still owns the platform now it’s possible the platform will become less political at least from the you know executive level at least and that’s also of course something that aligns with what former you know we should keep in mind former Fox News host
Tucker Carlson announced he is going to be starting a new show on Twitter as well and he says it’s going to have a dedication to free speech and with a focus on topics that the establishment media tend to ignore it’s possible this could represent Twitter really returning to what social
Media used to represent not that long ago that is a platform that allows people to express their views although again we’re going to have to see what it comes down to
