The Wall Street Journal, Washington Post, Time and several other news sources are reporting that Ellen Pao is resigning as CEO of Reddit. Pao will be replaced by Steve Huffman, a Reddit co-founder and its first CEO.

Pao has had a stormy and controversial stint as interim chief executive officer of Reddit which culminated in a mass user protest in recent weeks, as previously reported on SN.

    Seriously, how can this possibly matter?

    Considering that SN is going to emulate Reddit's primary functionality [soylentnews.org] it seems rather spot on.

    Building on top of slashcode? Oh dear. Well, best of luck :D

    Might be cool to see where this leads, as long as we don't get dubious subforums like creepshots and jailbait.
