Elon Musk has finally named the new CEO of Twitter, months after he promised to step back from the role. 9News

Earlier in the day, Yaccarino announced that she was leaving her role as chairman of global advertising and partnerships at NBCUniversal.

NBCUniversal's ad sales team has generated $US100 billion in ad sales since she joined in 2011, according to her profile, and forged partnerships with many new media companies including Twitter as well as Apple News, Buzzfeed, Snapchat and YouTube. Robyn Denholm also serves as chairman of Tesla. She assumed that role from Musk when the SEC required him to give up the position after a tweet in which he claimed he had funding secured to take the company private, when he had not yet locked up the financing to do so.

Monthly revenue from those previous top 1,000 advertisers plummeted by more than 60 per cent from October through January 25, from around $US127 million to just over $US48 million , according to the data.
