I didnt think the story would be that big of deal; I hear just a bunch old people mostly still
watch the news on TV.
But I have never yet seen such a dramatic increase in activity around a single instant. Our
site and e-mail intake has been entirely off the wall!
Its been everything from little kids who want to figure it out to major media executives
talking about getting hit by bricks to the head.
Also, I guess CBS is often syndicated because people have been writing in saying that they
saw it on TV in Africa, China, Japan and the UK.
Anyway, it seems like the story was put together well enough for people to get the idea.
My favorite part was when Jim Axelrod was standing on the roof with their billion dollars
worth of broadcast equipment saying you don't need all of this anymore.
The other day I got a tour of the CBS studios including meeting a bunch of the people on
the floor and I got to see how the system works, etc - what an amazing experience. As Eric
Rice said, "humbling".
The people there are all entirely privy to the changes that are coming on. They almost all
feel helpless and stressed because they know their organization literally can not move as
swiftly.
Interesting times!
