WPP Seeks Court Seal on Sony Probe Details in Foster Case
In a New York wrongful-termination suit, former GroupM executive Richard Foster amended his complaint against WPP, alleging illegal dismissal tied to improper rebate withholding and use. He says a previously undisclosed Sony Pictures investigation found WPP returned about $110 million in China rebates in 2023 but kept $350 million in seller discounts. WPP also moved to seal portions referencing attorney-client privileged conversations.
