Elon Musk takes control of Twitter, fires top executives

It’s official, Elon Musk has taken control of Twitter, as the $44bn deal is finalised.

Twitter’s CEO and CFO were immediately fired and “escorted out” of the building when Musk took the reigns.

In a sensational post to Twitter, Billionaire Elon Musk claimed he was acquiring the social network for the good of humanity.

Musk also used the post to reassure advertisers that Twitter will remain a safe place for their brands.

“Fundamentally, Twitter aspires to be the most respected advertising platform in the world that strengthens your brand and grows your enterprise,” he said. “Advertising, when done right, can delight, entertain and inform you.”

He said the reason he acquired Twitter is “because it is important to the future of civilisation to have a common digital town square. Where a wide range of beliefs can be debated in a healthy manner, without resorting to violence. “There is currently great danger that social media will splinter into far right wing and far left wing echo chambers that generate more hate and divide our society.”

Adding, “That is why I bought Twitter. I didn’t do it because it would be easy. I did it to try to help humanity, whom I love.”

Musk said Twitter should be a platform that is “warm and welcoming to all, where you can choose your desired experience according to your preferences.”
