        <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Netflix has let go of Fran Tirado — the streaming giant’s “brand and editorial strategy lead for LGBTQ content” — after 10 months, raising eyebrows at the timing of the move.</p><p>Tirado announced he was leaving a week after <strong>The New York Times profiled him</strong>&nbsp;in &#8220;The Pandemic Work Diary of Netflix&#8217;s Queer Champion.&#8221; The piece outlined his workweek, from meetings about a Ryan Murphy project to daily meals and music likes.</p><p>He also revealed thoughts on rivals — “I’m a little confused by ‘Mrs. America’ on FX,” and “I switch to HBO’s ‘Run’ because the first episode is free on YouTube” — and some goings-on at Netflix — “Our chief executive is doing an early morning Q&amp;A, but I skip it to write.”</p><p>But some are wondering whether Netflix knew about the Gray Lady interview beforehand — and if Tirado was axed because of it.</p><p>“This marks my last week at Netflix,” <strong>he posted</strong>. “While I’m SO grateful for my time there and what I’ve accomplished, I am (like many of my media colleagues) also looking for what’s next.”</p><p>A rep for Netflix only confirmed Tirado is no longer there.</p><p>Tirado told us, “I am unable to comment outside of what I’ve shared on social.”</p>]]></content:encoded>
