The executives at CBS are accused of destroying evidence and the person of accusing them is Shari Redstone and her company National Amusements. 

Redstone’s NAI, which controls roughly 80 percent of the voting power of CBS is in a battle against Les Moonves for control of CBS. 

In a court filing, Redstone’s NAI accuses Moonves and other executives used a self-destructing messaging app over a two-year stretch to get rid of an unknown number of key corporate documents. 

The media company’s brass used a program called TigerText to erase the key documents, according to the filing.

n the unsealed and partially redacted motion for discovery filed in Delaware Chancery court, NAI claims that Moonves’ lieutenant, Chief Operating Officer Joe Ianniello, and other execs used TigerText, an application that can delete messages immediately after being read, to communicate “highly relevant documents … over a two-year period.”

CBS spokesman Dana McClintock said the use of TigerText was related to the Sony hack four years ago.

“TigerText was implemented by CBS’ Information Security Group for cybersecurity reasons following the Sony hack, and was not developed or used for any nefarious or sinister communications as some have alleged,” he offered.
