On Tuesday, conservative actor James Woods wasted no time in offering two salient suggestions for Musk after Musk had tweeted that he was “looking forward” to “make significant improvements to Twitter in coming months!”
Woods tweeted, “Dear @elonmusk, welcome to Twitter. I join millions of users in hoping your presence will restore integrity to this once valuable forum. Two thoughts: Remove all politically motivated algorithms from the site. Make people have to use their real identities to end abuse.”
News had broken over Monday and Tuesday that Elon Musk was now Twitter’s largest shareholder and he had subsequently been appointed to the board of the company.
On Tuesday, after Monday’s news that Musk had become Twitter’s largest shareholder, taking a 9.2% stake in Twitter Inc., Twitter’s CEO Parag Agrawal announced Twitter would appoint Musk to the company’s board of directors.
Musk, who in late March asked his followers to vote in a poll about free speech and Twitter’s adherence to it, replied that he was “looking forward” to “make significant improvements to Twitter in coming months!”
Agrawal tweeted on Tuesday, “I’m excited to share that we’re appointing @elonmusk to our board! Through conversations with Elon in recent weeks, it became clear to us that he would bring great value to our Board,” adding, “He’s both a passionate believer and intense critic of the service which is exactly what we need on @Twitter, and in the boardroom, to make us stronger in the long-term. Welcome Elon!”
Musk responded, “Looking forward to working with Parag & Twitter board to make significant improvements to Twitter in coming months!”
