I wonder how they'll handle Tom's existing account which already has hundreds of millions of friends if they fire him.

NewsCorp already controls the "Tom account." He has stated so publicly several times.

I wonder if anyone would notice...

Although strictly speaking he has a public account and a private account. So'd they probably take control of his public account, and leave him to his private one.

Yeah one hand I'd doubt anyone would really care if Tom wasn't on their friends list.

But News Corp could definitely use it. Tom is the public face of Myspace,and Myspace news ends up on Tom's account. It would be a very easy way for the new CEO to communicate with the users. All they would need to do is change the name of the account to the new CEO's.

Wanted: CEO, with the first name of 'Tom', or willingness to change first name to 'Tom'.
