You chose the wrong person to try to humiliate — I don’t back down, I strike back.” With this cold, determined statement, CEO Andy Byron exploded at the Today Weekend hosts for mimicking his affair during a Coldplay concert. Byron officially filed a lawsuit against the hosts after they reenacted the infamous Titanic-style pose that went viral following the exposure of his affair with HR Director Christine Cabot. Byron condemned their actions as a “deliberate mockery” and accused them of crossing the line between satire and defamation. As the controversy spreads, Byron has threatened legal action, with the internet divided — was it just a harmless joke, or an attack on his personal life? The explosive fallout continues.
