Mozilla Appoints Former Marketing Head Interim CEO
itwbennett (1594911) writes "Following the contentious and ultimately failed appointment of Brendan Eich as CEO last month, the Mozilla Corporation has appointed Chris Beard to the board of directors and made him interim CEO. Beard starting working as chief marketing officer for Mozilla in 2004, and oversaw the launch of its current browser, Firefox, in 2005. Beard also managed the launches of Firefox on Android and the Firefox OS for mobile phones."
See the official announcement. Quoting: "We began exploring the idea of Chris joining the Board of Directors some months ago. Chris has been a Mozillian longer than most. He’s been actively involved with Mozilla since before we shipped Firefox 1.0, he’s guided and directed many of our innovative projects, and his vision and sense of Mozilla is equal to anyone’s. I have relied on his judgement and advice for nearly a decade. This is an excellent time for Chris to bring his understanding of Mozilla to the Board."
OK, I can understand the "Flamebait" mod, I get it. My post reads like provocative satire, but it's also unfortunately true. What part of it is not true, O Gentle Reader?

Your post doesn't read like provocative satire, it reads like douchebaggery. Like much of the crap in your posing history.
What part of it is not true, O Gentle Reader?
For one, Rahm Emanuel didn't work to deny Chick-fil-A' anything in Chicago. He simply responded to a question by a reporter regarding an Alderman’s announcement that he would block construction of a Chick-fil-A restaurant in his district. Saying "Chick-fil-A values are not Chicago values" doesn't really stop Chick-fil-A from doing anything, now does it?
Also, there's a high likelihood that anything from a link to Fox News doesn't contain much factual information.
One thing that is most definitely true about your post is it's a troll. You can probably count on a few of those mods as well.
