Bird is freed’: Musk takes Twitter, shows Agrawal the door
The Times of India Hyderabad|October 29, 2022
Twitter's new boss Elon Musk wasted no time in firing CEO Parag Agrawal, legal head Vijaya Gadde and three other top executives of the company moments after he took charge Thursday, tweeting "the bird is freed" to indicate the social media platform would now be more open to unfettered and uninhibited speech.

Bird is freed’: Musk takes Twitter, shows Agrawal the door

"Spoiler Alert. Let the good times roll," Musk tweeted early Friday.

As reported by TOI on Thursday, dismissal of the two Indian-American principals was inevitable. Agrawal and Gadde, who clashed with Musk in the days leading to the takeover over purported fake accounts and censorship, were literally shown the door, reportedly escorted out of the Twitter headquarters. But there was a good reason they did not walk out before Musk took charge: Agrawal's contract is said to earn him a compensation of up to $60 million if his services are terminated.
