The company confirmed Mr. Klein was on leave, and has since insisted that this is not some sort of euphemistic  or even deceitful way of announcing Mr. Klein's departure.
 
"Let me reiterate," spokeswoman Susan Robison said in a statement. "This is a temporary leave of absence and when Russ is ready to return, he will."
 
As for Mr. Klein, by way of explanation he offered this statement to Ad Age, sent via e-mail: "Simply 'sharpening the sword.' And the bigger the dragon waiting for me when I return, the better. That's all you need to know. Print it." It was signed, "Positively, RK."
