Kanye West has agreed to buy Parler, the libertarian-leaning social network popular with conservatives.
Parler’s parent company, Parlement Technologies, said Monday it had entered into an agreement in principle for Ye, Mr. West’s latest moniker, to buy the platform.
“This deal will change the world, and change the way the world thinks about free speech,” Parler Chief Executive George Farmer said in a statement. “Ye is making a groundbreaking move into the free speech media space and will never have to fear being removed from social media again.”
Financial terms of the deal weren’t disclosed. Parlement and Mr. West didn’t immediately respond to requests for comment.
