Investor Releases Satirical Video Calling for Reid Hoffman’s Removal from Microsoft’s Board

NLPC

Poor judgment that led him to visit [Jeffrey] Epstein Island, asking friends to meet with the late pedophile, and an overwrought obsession with the defeat and downfall of President Trump, are just a few of the reasons why tech investor Reid Hoffman should no longer serve on Microsoft’s board of directors, according to an investor in the company. And now that shareholder, National Legal and Policy Center, has released a satirical video to amplify the case it has made for the last 18 months – that the LinkedIn co-founder is unfit for such a prestigious role with the software giant. Last year NLPC submitted a memorandum to the Securities and Exchange Commission asking shareholders to vote against Hoffman’s re-election to the Microsoft board. The nonprofit investor again called for his removal this year in an additional filing at the SEC, after he told fellow billionaire elites at a Sun Valley, Idaho conference that he wished he had made Donald Trump an “actual martyr,” just days before an assassination attempt was made on the former President in Butler, Pa. “There are plenty of active and generous donors, mostly to left-leaning candidates, on corporate boards in the U.S., but we don’t consider them unfit to serve,” said Paul Chesser, director of NLPC’s Corporate Integrity Project. “But with his excessive Trump obsession, dubious political ethics and funding of lawfare, Reid Hoffman is in another class, which should eliminate him from consideration for any public company leadership role.” Microsoft’s annual meeting is scheduled for December 10, and release of the company’s proxy statement is expected before the end of October. Watch NLPC’s video on Hoffman and his role at Microsoft here. For more information or to schedule an interview with Paul Chesser, contact Dan Rene at 202-329-8357 or drene@nlpc.org.
