We've got to lift our game tremendously. We'll sell our business news and information in print, we'll sell it to anyone who's got a cable system, and we'll sell it on the Web.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Cable is a niche business. If you can own a niche, that can be a very strong business.
If you look at the heritage of the cable business, if you can own a niche, you have a good chance of succeeding.
Sooner or later the Internet will become profitable. It's an old story played before by canals, railroads and automobiles.
Cable is a dynamic and highly innovative industry, providing cutting edge services and content that Americans love. The broadband platform the industry has deployed is a critical part of the infrastructure needed to realize our national ambition to be a great nation in the Information Age.
You really can create a lot of value by putting content and distribution together, particularly if the content is cable content.
I'm interested in all forms of content, including Internet and gaming. On the TV side, cable has sparked a renaissance of the medium and that will continue for storytellers.
The cable model is just a better model. Dual revenue stream: advertising-supported and subscription-supported revenues.
The best businesses that all of us have in the entertainment business are cable content channels, which have a dual revenue stream.
We make programming decisions on a day-to-day basis. We sell advertising on a day-to-day basis. This is the way networks operate. This is the way all television stations operate. This is the way most businesses operate when you have a number of affiliates or a number of franchises. It's the way the business operates.
Whatever you're selling, storage or networking or security, you're going head to head with the incumbent players.
