"HBO CEO Casey Bloys Under Fire for Alleged Fake Twitter Account Drama"
Casey Bloys, HBO and Max chairman and CEO, is set to face reporters at a presentation of HBO's 2024 content slate amid allegations of a Twitter scheme revealed in a Rolling Stone article. Bloys and his senior vice president of drama programming, Kathleen McCaffrey, allegedly coordinated online responses to critical reviews by setting up dummy social media accounts. The article includes text exchanges between Bloys, McCaffrey, and a former HBO executive assistant who was tasked with creating the fake accounts. Bloys is portrayed as a thin-skinned executive unable to handle criticism. HBO declined to comment on the allegations, and it is unclear if there will be any punitive action.
