Reddit CEO steps down
Ellen Pao, the interim chief executive of Reddit, resigned on Friday afternoon.
{mosads}Steve Huffman, the original reddit CEO, will take over the position, according to Sam Altman, a reddit board member and president of Y Combinator. Altman described the decision as mutual.
The Friday afternoon news comes less than a week after Pao apologized to the website’s community for the ouster of an employee, which spawned calls for Pao’s removal and caused many moderators to shut down some of the site’s threads out of protest.
