I think money in general hurts all sports.

The ability of players to jump teams when their contracts are up has hurt fan loyalty.

I don't think there is enough educational programming, but unfortunately, television is built around advertising and those shows don't get the big ratings.

I was fortunate to be part of a very successful show on CBS in 1986. I switched to NBC for eight years and through these experiences have gotten terrific insight into television; it's a fascinating medium.

The wonderful thing about television is the immediate impact of pictures of current events.

The one good thing about television is the money; you can make a lot more money than in newspapers.

When I started at the Globe 40 years ago, there were seven newspapers in Boston and now there are only two. There were only three or four television stations in Boston and now there are a dozen.
