Reports suggest that after months of wrangling, ElonMusk has finally closed his controversial $44 billion deal to acquire Twitter.
Elon Musk is finally in charge of Twitter, reports suggest tonight. And he’s already fired several top executives.
Elon Musk is now in charge at Twitter. I'm told former CEO @paraga and CFO @nedsegal have left the company's HQ and will not be returning as the Musk era begins. Hours after Musk showed up at Twitter’s headquarters carrying a sink in a bizarre stunt that he tweeted with the quip, “Entering Twitter HQ — let that sink in,” the billionaire entrepreneur posted a message to advertisers explaining why he wanted to buy the company.
He continued: “That is why I bought Twitter. I didn’t do it because it would be easy. I didn’t do it to make more money. I did it to try to help humanity, whom I love. And I do so with humility, recognizing that failure in pursuing this goal, despite our best efforts, is a very real possibility.” Musk tried to pull out of the deal, prompting Twitter to take legal action in a bid to force it through.
