The | in your phrase above is a RegEx character (see pipe symbol in link). If you want it to be a “normal” character, then you need to “escape” it, or put it like: CIO \| The voice of IT leadership. Personally, I would not do the comparison with RegEx as it seems you want to make a direct comparison, so set the boolean to false.
Edit: For Groovy, you might need to change it to: CIO \\| The voice of IT leadership.
