Yaccarino resigned as CEO of X, just two years after being hired by Musk.

Two years ago, Linda Yaccarino was hired as the CEO of X by Musk, but she announced her resignation less than three months after the social media platform was acquired by Musk's artificial intelligence startup. Yaccarino posted on X platform on Wednesday, saying, "After an incredible two-year journey, I have decided to resign as the CEO of X. As you continue to change the world, I will be cheering you on." This former NBCUniversal executive was hired by Musk in May 2023, with her main task during her tenure being to reverse Musk's erratic content moderation decisions and advertiser attrition caused by his personal posts.
