HBO boss apologises for using fake Twitter accounts to troll TV critics
theguardian.com
The HBO CEO and chairman, Casey Bloys, has apologised for tasking employees with creating fake Twitter accounts to attack TV critics.
Bloys was responding to a bombshell Rolling Stone report that referenced alleged text messages between himself and Kathleen McCaffrey, HBO’s senior vice-president of drama programming. In six conversations, the pair discussed a “secret army” that could respond to TV critics who gave HBO shows a negative review.

That is exceptionally thin skin. And it's amazing to me that the CEO of HBO has so much time on his hands.
...nah, I take that back. Pretty much confirms what I assume CEOs are doing all day.
Lots of money and time. Makes me wonder - why do CEOs exist again?
CEO bad
You are correct sir.
