Does the IDIOT who "runs" PEOPLE WARNER, Mr. Bew-KES, actually ever CONSUME any of His properties? We see a man in His huge office at PEOPLE WARNER CENTER, immersed in spreadsheets, having constant meetings, or else flying from coast to coast umpteen times a week, busily thinking what decayed parcels of His empire to sell, prodigiously memorizing buzzwords. We doubt He has a monitor in His office, or if He does, it's on as background noise. We doubt He watches much TV at home, and we'd guess He gets FREE CABLE, this despite the spinoff. We doubt He'd know what HISTORY'S GREATEST NETWORK programs without breathing in the press releases of armies of admiring ad-blurbists. We doubt He's ever attended a "world premiere" of a movie even though His DC COMICS UNIT loves to boast how it's a leader in its field. We doubt He's bought one of His company's DVDs. WE DOUBT HE WATCHES CNN, or even consults ITS WEB SITES. Heck we doubt He logs onto PEOPLE INC.'s sites. (The home page on his PC is most likely THIS.) And if He has MAGAZINES on His desk they're probably FOR SHOW, to impress gullible ADVERTISERS. We suspect the only difference between Him and the late Mr. LEVIN or His equal in nincompoopery Mr. PARSONS is that He has never boasted of saving the world through the Internet, nor has He intimated He'd like to be Noo Yawk's mayor. This man no doubt runs PEOPLE WARNER from IGNORANCE, and while it may be the best means of overseeing an outfit that produces such vast quantities of junk it may not be the best thing for those at the RECEIVING END of it.
