Ugh..that report kept using the words "branding" and "synergy." Yuck. The sections dealing with ABC were just depressing. They kept saying viewership is up, but they're stuck in fourth place behind FOX. Never thought I'd live to see that happen. They have to do something with ABC.

They have to either pump more money into it, and put better people in the decision making spots...

that or....sell it!

Well, as far as Eisner is concerned, everything about ABC is personal. Afterall, this is where he started his career. (Read Keys to the Kingdom for Eisner history) So I'm sure he sees it as his duty to try and save the struggling studio. The problem IMHO is that there are too many people to go through in order to approve a show. They need to streamline the process and trust the people they put in charge of programming. Let them make misstakes on their own without fear of retribution from Disney High Command. Otherwise, those folks are going to second guess everything they do.
