The Power Behind the Throne
Eisner sees bright future for industry
I'm no big fan of Michael Eisner, but there's some smart stuff in the Hollywood Reporter piece, linked above, on his speech at the Hollywood Radio and Television Society's first Newsmaker Luncheon of the 2005-06 season.
Grab: [Eisner] added that content isn't actually king, as the saying goes, but that it's more of a "steadfast queen, the true power behind the throne, who loyally serves whatever king currently holds the distribution scepter."
I've been thinking a lot about that statement since I first read the piece, via IWantMedia, a week ago. Eisner's other observations ring true as well.
