Were in this transition period of figuring out how to deal with all the new technology that is out there, but television still proves to be the granddaddy of them all.

CNBC is a very serious-minded financial news network, and what we've seen thus far from Fox appears to be not as investment-focused or financially focused, and that's good for us.

Network news will still play an incredibly important role in this country, but the world that Peter, Tom and Dan began covering 25 years ago isn't the same world today. Technology, lifestyle and what constitutes news have all changed dramatically. I'm not saying that it is better or worse. I'm just saying that it's reality.

It's a growing trend. Viewers are our customers, but so are advertisers. And advertisers want different ways to reach our viewers.

The cable model is just a better model. Dual revenue stream: advertising-supported and subscription-supported revenues.

People are looking for original content in many different places, as are advertisers. This takes us into a whole new ballgame.

More traffic means more advertising dollars.
