Mark Zuckerberg Votes to Keep Peter Thiel on Facebook Board (gizmodo.com) 13 points by chewymouse 10y ago ↗ HN
[–] xiaoma 10y ago ↗ Gawker owns Gizmodo and has a vested interest in painting Peter Thiel in a bad light since he has contributed to the legal expenses of their victims, so I'm unconvinced of the newsworthiness of this piece. [–] minimaxir 10y ago ↗ That doesn't make the headline any less accurate. [–] xiaoma 10y ago ↗ Zuckerberg voted to keep others on the board, too. It's routine. This isn't news. It's a swipe. [–] minimaxir 10y ago ↗ The TechCrunch headline is "Peter Thiel was not kicked off Facebook’s board" which is actually worse than Gizmodo's headline.https://techcrunch.com/2016/06/20/peter-thiel-was-not-kicked... [–] DerekL 10y ago ↗ All of that is explained in the second paragraph of the article.

[–] guptabot 10y ago ↗ Last time this happened, pmarca ended up offending a country and zuckerberg personally had to apologise twice. [–] yuhong 10y ago ↗ That is not a good reason not to do so.
