O Ad Safety and Quality Executive do Twitter, A.J. Brown, left Twitter this Friday (02). The decision came a day after Ella Irwin, then head of security and moderation, left the platform. The two were seen as executives of great importance to the company.
The information comes from The Wall Street Journal and now, the new director Linda Yaccarino will have to analyze these gaps during her first moments of work. The former head of advertising at NBCUniversal was announced for the role in early May, months after Elon Musk resigned as CEO.
Within the Twitter structure, Irwin was Brown’s direct manager and had been a Twitter employee since 2022. She rose to the role following the departure of Yoel Roth, while the executive was responsible for tasks such as preventing ads from appearing alongside inappropriate content. on the social network.
These departures take place at a troubled time for the platform in relation to the way in which content is managed within the platform. In fact, Roth stepped down last year after clashing with Musk over ways to moderate what is posted.
In any case, it is worth keeping an eye on Twitter’s next steps with the departure of two important executives. The arrival of Elon Musk also raised concerns due to a group of brands that published their ads on the social network.
