      Former = still owns a ton of stock

      Could = it’s in the future

      Press always describes things like this because if they’re more explicit and any little detail is wrong, they get sued.

        I know. But this softness is the problem. If they can be more explicit in the “still owns a ton of stock” and the “working to ensure personal gain” parts, that’d be nice.

        As for getting sued… The trash rags print literally whatever the heck they want to. Yes, they get sued, but it’s always seen as bad form to. These MSMs are just too afraid.
