Elon Musk Says He Will Resign As Twitter CEO After Securing Successor

Huff Post  

LOADING ERROR LOADING Elon Musk on Tuesday claimed he will resign as CEO of Twitter once he has found a replacement. Musk appointed himself CEO less than two months ago, shortly after finalizing his $44 billion takeover of Twitter at the end of October. Since then, the self-avowed “free speech absolutist” has made a long list of erratic changes to the company’s policies, including those pertaining to content moderation, suspended users and promotion of competitors. He has repeatedly made and then reversed decisions, seemingly on personal whims, and enacted major changes on the platform based on “yes” or “no” Twitter polls.
