Disney-owned ABC has now accused the administration of violating its First Amendment rights with an ongoing investigation into The View. [...] This situation could turn into an ugly, expensive, and exhausting legal battle that no CEO would want to deal with — especially during their first year on the job. But if D’Amaro wants to be seen as a CEO who truly believes in his company and employees, he needs to put his boxing gloves on and get ready to fight no matter how long it takes.
