Hope This is the right place to post, last time I got bad reputation points because of wrong placement.Ok, I just saw this on the Drudge Report, that when Eisner was having his bypass he wrote a memo stating that he thought Barry Dillard should take his place if he died. Who is Dillard and would he be any good as CEO? Thanks

Learn about Barry Diller here
Barry was at ABC and Paramount prior to Eisner, and he was one of the more powerful people in Hollywood. He ran USA for a while, Universal too. He now runs IAC, which owns Hotels.com, Expedia, Hotwire.....
Barry Diller is a "corporate" guy, and would probably not be a good fit. Plus, being CEO of the WDC would not exactly be a promotion for him.
