Linus Media Group CEO Terren Tong also responded via email, saying he was “shocked at the allegations and the company described” in Reeve’s posts. He went on to note that “as part of this process, beyond an internal review we will also be hiring an outside investigator to look into the allegations and will commit to publish the findings and implementing any corrective actions that may arise because of this.”
Finally, someone in this shit fest of a management structure realized that having the owners of the company investigate themselves isn't the smartest idea here.
I will be interested to see how much power the new CEO really has over operations, or if Linus predictably has got such a founder's syndrome that he tries to "fix" the problems himself (which he can't, of course, since he clearly doesn't believe he has a workplace culture issue in the first place).
