I'm currently at the Monaco Media Forum, watching Michael Wolff interview
Ben Silverman of NBC/Universal and the Director-General of the BBC.
These guys don't get it. At all. It's all top down. They have know idea
what's out there, and they really can't be arsed to look.
I am so pissed off right
Can you be more specific about their approach or lack of understanding?

Nothing I ever hear about TV executives' approach to the internet
ever gives me any hope. Apparently, none of them ever use the

It's just infuriating. Just plain infuriating. Both these top executives
have massive, multi-purpose staff and they''re STILL in a bubble. NBC is
starting a digital studio instead of cutting a deal with the

Sidenote on the Beeb: French Saunders had their last performance a few
nights ago. Among the many reasons they cited for ending their partnership
was increasing frustration with the BBC's lack of courage and freedom, going
for safe populist comedy programming in answer to competition from
