LES IS MORE 08: 10 reasons why Les Moonves should run Viacom too

Published: Friday, February 23, 2007

-Shomari Hines

There are so many reasons why Les Moonves should be running sister company Viacom in addition to CBS Corp. Below are ten of those reasons.


  1. Like we said in our "Morning Wire", the man can suck a stack of twenties rolled tight through a garden hose
  2. He seems to be on the ball with CBS's digital strategy
  3. His wife is hotter than Phil Dauman's
  4. The guy is kinda cool
  5. He is the master at UPOD
  6. The guy tans well
  7. Sumner Redstone says he reminds him of himself
  8. He has a better looking face to rep Viacom
  9. He talks the Wall Street lingo
  10. He knows he can do a better job than the stiff suited Phil Dauman

Number 7 should be all the reason Sumner Redstone needs to wake up and smell Les's tanning lotion.

We were dead serious when we said this and the more we think about it, the more it makes sense and Sumner Redstone needs to get out of the pool and start looking into putting what we will call from here on out "The Ghosn Act" in affect and hand Les Moonves the keys to Viacom. If Sumner were to activate "The Ghosn Act" , Not only would Wall Street react in a very positive way, the stock would spike. So with that said, we are officially launching our "Moonves for Viacom-CBS CEO" right now at this very moment. Viacomers, jump on this bandwagon and get rid of the lame suit in the corner office. Shari Redstone, talk to daddy and tell him this may not be a bad idea at all. LES IS MORE! Must we come and plaster the front doors of 1515 Broadway with Moonves 08 stickers?
