Netflix CEO in Hot Water Over Facebook Post
KTRH Radio

Gray Reed attorney Travis Crabtree was interviewed on KTRH Radio Houston on the Netflix CEO who possibly violated SEC law when he made a facebook post.  Netflix and its chief executive, Reed Hastings, have been warned by regulators over a 43-word post that Mr. Hastings made to his Facebook page in July, in which he said subscribers had watched one billion hours of video the previous month. The Securities and Exchange Commission, concerned that the post may have violated a rule requiring a company to announce material information to all investors at the same time, warned that it may file civil claims or seek a cease-and-desist order.
