Twitter looks to media moguls to fill board seats


Twitter is looking to bring in some entertainment industry folks to sit on its board, a new report claims.


The company is currently in the process of interviewing several media company executives or industry bigshots to sit on its board, All Things Digital is reporting, citing sources. Chief among the candidates is former News Corp. executive and Hollywood bigwig Peter Chernin, All Things Digital's sources say.


Chernin is no stranger to the online world. He currently sits on Pandora's board of directors, and according to All Things Digital, has made some investments in Asia that relate to digital media. After leaving News Corp., Chernin produced a host of films and television shows, including "Rise of the Planet of the Apes."
