The TV business is like the produce section of the market. Today everything is fresh and glistening and firm. And tomorrow, when they find a bruise on you, they toss you out.

The TV business is uglier than most things. It is normally perceived as some kind of cruel and shallow money trench through the heart of the journalism industry, a long plastic hallway where thieves and pimps run free and good men die like dogs, for no good reason.

I do love television. But the business is accelerating and people are not getting the chance to fail.

The television business is actually going through a tremendous transition, but I think at the end of the day, television is still paramount.

While television is a good servant, it's a bad master. It can swallow up huge quantities of our lives without much happiness bang for the buck.

There's show and there's business. Business is a whole other beat.

I think that the problem with network television is that they cling to the whole business model like they are clinging to the side of a cliff.

Television isn't my career. Business is.

Television has tremendous power over our lives.

Television is ultimately a business of failure. You try a lot of things, and most of it fails.
