Conversation: Elon Musk will settle $128M lawsuit with former Twitter execs Crunch

B: What's up? I'm listening.

A: Elon Musk is gonna settle a $128 million lawsuit with four Twitter execs he fired back in 2022!
B: Whoa, really?! Which execs are we talking about?

A: Well, they were the CEO, CFO, and two top lawyers. They say Musk didn't give them their severance pay because they tried to make him keep his promise when he wanted out of buying Twitter.
B: That sounds serious! I remember they never got paid... And it seems like they had a quote from one of his books about hunting them down... Scary!

A: Yeah, the court filing says they've reached a settlement, but no details yet. This isn't the first time he's been sued over severance pay either – he just settled a class action lawsuit with 6,000 laid-off Twitter employees too. Some complained about not getting their full or any pay at all.
B: Crazy! I hope everything gets sorted out for those folks. It's tough when people don't get what they deserve.
