Hirschhorn Out At MySpace
Just when you thought it couldn't get any worse at MySpace, the struggling social network late Thursday confirmed the abrupt departure of Co-President Jason Hirschhorn. "We fully respect Jason's
decision to leave and his personal desire to return to New York," Jon Miller, Chief Digital Officer for News Corporation, said in a statement. "He's done everything we asked of him and more."
Co-president Mike Jones will now step into the role of sole president of MySpace.
Jones "has done an outstanding job leading MySpace into its next evolution and is the right person to take the reins," Miller said on Thursday. For his part, Hirschhorn tweeted Thursday: "I believe in MySpace, its leader Jonesy and its wonderful team."
