A US tech company says its chief executive has quit after he was apparently caught on a big screen at a Coldplay concert embracing a female co-worker, in a clip that went viral.

The clip showed a man and a woman hugging on a jumbo screen at the arena in Foxborough, Massachusetts, before they abruptly ducked and hid from the camera.

The pair were identified in US media as Mr Byron, a married chief executive of Astronomer, and Kristin Cabot, the firm's chief people officer.

No, this absolute teen goss bullshit was pushed HARD on the public specifically to distract from the Epstein shit. They saw anything and it went fucking VIRAL.

Get your head out of your fucking asshole, this was pushed, nothing about this ridiculous nonsense would have made a single wave two months ago.

For fuck's sakes.

Exactly. He can rape little girls AND women.
Also he can do all that raping AND also beat his ex wife because she was the one who suggested the doctor that did his hair transplant which then became painful (according to the court case that got paid off).
Furthermore he can do all that raping and beating and paying off of victims AND also bankrupt many casinos!
That dude is a multi tasker if I ever did see one.

Never underestimate how much of the media and society love to see schadenfreude. It's basically escapism from the daily onslaught of terrible news all the time.
