Broadcasting's best days lie ahead as both an engine of local economies and as an integral part of tomorrow's technological world.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Today, television is the most powerful medium in the world. Tomorrow it will also be the most personal. There is no one future for television. It will be defined differently for everyone.
Our future is only limited by our commitment to keep the momentum going. Now that television has been set free from all constraints - including time, place, and all previous definitions - what comes next?
Broadcasting is definitely in my cards for the future, and I'm determined to work hard at it - to perfect it and create my style and niche.
The world is changing, and the Internet is about to become the next broadcast network.
The television business is actually going through a tremendous transition, but I think at the end of the day, television is still paramount.
Broadcast TV is still the mothership and it will be for the foreseeable future. Audiences may be declining slightly but revenues are going up and profits are going up.
The one good thing about television is the money; you can make a lot more money than in newspapers.
I do think that the days of gathering around a television set that functions merely as a television set, to receive a live broadcast of some networked programming, those days are probably numbered.
Internet TV and the move to the digital approach is quite revolutionary. TV has historically has been a broadcast medium with everybody picking from a very finite number of channels.
It's a good thing I was born in this century, when superfluous television seems to be part of the economy.
