Very good, flick. On CBS:

From your first link (CBS' Karmazin on 03/25):

He also said CBS might look to take some of its current network holdings and turn them into digital TV channels, perhaps turning CBS MarketWatch into the network's own version of CNBC.

What AXC is setting up would support this venture perfectly.

CBS is already a portal in the making. Its properties include INF (160+ radio stations, TDI outdoor advertising), KWP ("Oprah," "Wheel"), SPLN, MKTW, Office.com, StoreRunner.com, Hollywood.com and CBS.com. In addition, CBS radio and TV affiliates generally have Web sites and CBS has an exclusive news relationship with AOL, who could also use some multimedia exposure. As ever, beauty's in the 'eye' of the beshareholder...

BAM

cbs.com
sportsline.com
marketwatch.com
office.com
storerunner.com
hollywood.com

<< " i don't think the world is ready for this.">>

lol......wonderful Wilson cartoon, Randy. And perfect simile.

Was it Woody Allen who said 95% of success is simply showing up?
AXC is showing up ....exactly where I do not know...but early entry - nuts and bolts skills learned and innovated - should give them many
diverse customers and suitors ....regardless of the crosscurrents and thumb wrestling matches among the giants. If there is enough time ...
Well, I am pretty certain that Bramson has some good ideas of how to buy that time. Wouldn't start if he had no ideas how to continue.

( still remember the Gahan Wilson cartoon of the hungry looking 200 foot monster coming over a hill.....little hamburger stand on the other side with a neon " Eat Here" above it....)
