Linda Yaccarino Takes the Helm at Twitter Amid Ad Revenue Decline
Twitter's new CEO, Linda Yaccarino, has hired former NBCUniversal ad executive, Joe Benarroch, as she scrambles to prop up ad revenue that has reportedly plunged 59% this year. Yaccarino took the reins from Elon Musk about three weeks earlier than expected. Benarroch brings more than a decade of advertising experience to Twitter, which could be useful after Musk ditched much of the site’s communications team when he bought Twitter for $44 billion in October and laid off more than half its workforce.
