Elon Musk’s leadership style—including his dramatic cost-cutting strategies—has taken some heavy criticism since he purchased the social media app Twitter. Now Canary (PPAI 278382, D3) has filed a lawsuit against Twitter, claiming that the social media giant owes the promo company more than $390,000.
Twitter claimed in a court filing last week that it would need “several more weeks” to properly investigate Canary’s claims. The company’s response must come by March 17. Canary’s lawsuit is one of many that have been issued against Twitter since Musk’s tumultuous tenure began last year.
