To move online security to the next level, there has to be fundamental resolve among consumers, government and business to quickly adopt a system where the individual has more control over how information about them is managed and shared.

What we're seeing is a great deal of customization on country and industry levels.

What makes life most difficult is the media intrusion, ... I think the public has gotten more and more greedy for the intimate details of their lives.

They are living in a goldfish bowl. And it never goes away.

We're in a position where we're flying under the radar. We're not being talked about on TV shows. When they mention teams in the playoffs, it's like the Jaguars are the last one. That's fine. I like it that way. When we beat New England, that says it all.

You don't lock into a ten-year family budget. You take it a year at a time - maybe even six months at a time.

Jeff Zucker

We believe we have a youthful and energetic cast that should appeal to a new audience that is increasingly comfortable with this downloadable format as a viewing option.

Barbara Ehrenreich

When the Somalians were merely another hungry third world people, we sent them guns. Now that they are falling down dead from starvation, we send them troops. Some may see in this a tidy metaphor for the entire relationship between north and south. But it would make a whole lot more sense nutritionally -- as well as providing infinitely more vivid viewing -- if the Somalians could be persuaded to eat the troops.

Peter Chernin

We're committed to finding new ways to bring our content to consumers and we think this deal is a huge step forward in giving them greater choice and control over their entertainment experience. For the very first time, viewers will be able to watch their favorite shows before the rest of the world. And we now have the ability to create different cuts of our programs for the pre-air audience--versions with additional scenes and materials not included in the network broadcast--something entirely new. It's an exciting opportunity for the television consumer and for us. Moreover, this new partnership will also enrich the viewing experience by providing access to DirecTV's enhanced services, features and interactive functionality.
