I agree, this whole thing with him being the chairman of the board and also firing a key person really makes things look bad. Pao had terrible policies, but you really start to question how much of those policies she was actually responsible for. For all we know, kn0thing could have been making all the key decisions, which would unfairly make Pao look like an even worse CEO than she otherwise would have been.
This is just all wrong.

He's co-founder as well as chair.
I agree that his claim that he fired Victoria is a bit odd, as you point out...
And then there's this: https://np.reddit.com/r/AskReddit/comments/3cs78i/whats_the_best_long_con_you_ever_pulled/cszjqg2?context=3[1] which is just ridiculous. If anyone isn't aware, yishan and ekjp are both former CEOs, spez is the current CEO, and Altman is Y-combinator.
