Tesla CEO Elon Musk Won't Join Twitter's Board After All

Musk has been one of Twitter's loudest critics, and the sudden withdrawal could mean that the narrative between Musk and Twitter will become rockier.

Twitter's largest investor, billionaire Elon Musk, is reversing course and will no longer join the company's board of directors less than a week after being awarded a seat.

Twitter CEO Parag Agrawal announced the news, which followed a weekend of Musk tweets suggesting changes to Twitter, including making the site ad-free. Nearly 90% of Twitter's 2021 revenue came from ads.

However, a number of the tweets posted by Musk over the weekend regarding potential changes at Twitter no longer appear on the platform.
