Parler CEO John Matze Forced Out by Mercer-Controlled ‘Board’ ★

Fox News:

Parler has terminated CEO John Matze, according to a memo Matze sent to staffers that has been obtained by Fox News.

“On January 29, 2021, the Parler board controlled by Rebekah Mercer decided to immediately terminate my position as CEO of Parler. I did not participate in this decision,” Matze wrote. “I understand that those who now control the company have made some communications to employees and other third parties that have unfortunately created confusion and prompted me to make this public statement.”

I believe his surname rhymes with “rates”, but it’s a shame it doesn’t rhyme with “patsy”, because that’s what he is.
