Elon Musk takes over Twitter

In 2021, as chair of the Ad Council she partnered wiht the Biden Administration to create an advertising campaign for the Cvoid-19 vaccine that featured Pope Francis.

She seems like a socialist and a papist who is under the thumb of Tony Fauci.

 

By all accounts she's really good.

To me, the most notable thing is that he hired someone with an advertising background. His whole BS -- and the only rationale for how he could ever actually live up to the insane price he paid for the company -- was that he had some grand vision for Twitter that turns it into a subscription-based, multiple-sources-of-revenue "everything" app of some sort that doesn't rely on advertising.

But then he came in and drove away all of the advertising it actually had -- which was its only revenue -- while flailing around to find other revenue sources that don't exist. And apparently he realizes that advertising is the only revenue that the platform can realistically rely on. If that is the case, though, he's completely fucked, because take Twitter's peak ad revenue from before he bought the company, and if she can match it, it still doesn't provide enough cash flow for Musk to make the interest payments on the leveraged loans he saddled the company with in order to way overpay for it. It leaves him reaching into his own pocket to keep the lights on. To me, this hire demonstrates how fucked he is.
