MediaLink CEO Michael Kassan is out at United Talent Agency and is now suing the company for breach of contract and fraud. Meanwhile, UTA says it has filed a separate lawsuit accusing Kassan of “misappropriation of company funds.”
Further complicating an already complex situation, in his lawsuit, filed Tuesday, Kassan includes as evidence a letter of resignation he tendered to the company, dated March 6. In a separate statement, UTA says it fired Kassan “for cause” on March 7th.
Kassan’s lawsuit, obtained by TheWrap, accuses UTA CEO Jeremy Zimmer and other executives of acting in bad faith when they acquired MediaLink.
