Jumping the gun: But what would a Bewkes lead TimeWarner look and smell like?
Published: Tuesday, May 30, 2006
Ok so at press time, TimeWarner CEO Dick Parsons didn't get fired by the board of directors and he didn't announce his resignation and we don't expect him to anytime soon. But we pride ourselves in thinking ahead and today's thinking ahead has us thinking about what TimeWarner will look like if and when Jeff Bewkes steps into Dick's shoes when he retires which again isn't happening anytime soon.As far as senior management, we see him either bringing in HBO's Chris Albrecht as his President, or even Time Inc's Anne Moore. Then again Jeff probably has some buddies outside the company who would get a first shot. We see him continuing the Parsons doctrine but with his touch. We see AOL being spun off or sold completely then again no.........because old media is betting big on new media. Hmmm maybe AOL CEO Jon Miller would finally get the axe. Maybe we are really jumping the gun here!! But we do have to talk about these things because they will happen one day. As far as smell, Bewkes looks like a cool water wearing kind of guy and a cigar smoker. So blend the two in your head and thats the smell. Labels: JeffBewkes |
