Having spent two years at AOL, I would love to be able to go back to that industry knowing what I know, and I think I would be able to help the traditional media side to better understand what is coming at them, how to deal with it.
We're very comfortable with where we are. We're very comfortable with our projections.

This is about realizing that the Olympics is more than about network television now, and the future is about being a content provider. In the future, it's going to be about going deeper with audiences, of finding ways to satisfy people in different ways.
American Idol' is clearly a phenomenon. But we expected it and are tracking right where we planned to be at this point.
Back in 1975, we were making all the decisions about what people were going to watch.
