YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Uber CEO Travis Kalanick is taking a leave of absence. Hannah Cranston, Mark Thompson, and Amberia Allen, the hosts of The Young Turks, discuss if this is the end of the line for Kalanick. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.

“Uber's Board of Directors has adopted a series of recommendations about the company's corporate culture from former Attorney General Eric Holder, but it was silent late Sunday on whether it would approve a leave of absence for the ride service's embattled CEO.

A spokesman confirmed that the board met with Holder and Tammy Albarr?n, both partners with Covington & Burling LLP, a law firm hired to investigate complaints of widespread sexual harassment and other deep-seeded cultural problems at Uber.

Board members voted unanimously to adopt all of the firm's recommendations, which were to be released to employees on Tuesday, the spokesman said.

He would not comment on any further actions taken by the board, including whether it discussed the future of CEO Travis Kalanick. Multiple media outlets reported Sunday that the board was considering a leave of absence for Kalanick.”
