reaching out for a bunch of very traditional, scripted programming from very established producers like jerry bruckheimer or like dick wolf with the law and order l.a. they're talking about a rockford files remake. as they say, they're going back to basics. it's almost ironic they were telling us a short time ago they were going to reinvent television. all of that has been discarded. it's back to basics. >> brown: bob thompson just to broaden even further. there's the dvr. one new factor here. there's the competition from the internet which we talk about a lot. but a lot of this also has to do with competition from cable i guess, right, in terms of what the networks are facing. >> that's right. i think this had a lot less to do with the new digital revolution and the internet and all the rest of it. i think this got down to good old fashioned fragmentation of the audience which has been happening since cable started kicking in the 1980s. when you've got so many other choices of places to watch, the networks are having a hard time getting audiences big enough to justify the kind of expenditure

but the profits the snakehead trade was jerry at the time of so much there was a fight with him again there was a rift. ah kay under brothers worked to go because she. the store get very weird. there was this one house by like it was a fuk ching safe house. the guys were all there hanging out, and a rival faction of the game rolled up, came inside and massacred them all. kill them all. is a quadruple homicide. a terrible, terrible scene. the thinking have become if we go until those guys, there's the ship coming in, remember, 300 customers, $35000 a hit. we can be the ones to go out and get a ship. but these bozos, you know, all got back into the van. it's like 6 p.m. in may and december. there are all these people, these young chinese guys with machine guns and into a dodge caravan and kind of take off. somebody said we should probably check the gw bridge because they might be try to get into manhattan. that roll up to the bridge and cops, in, pulled him over and they all get out covered with blood. i should be making light of it, but kind of a absurd, ludicrous situation. the guys w

the aid was jerry bremmer who ended up becoming our viceroy anorak. we still joke about it.he told me that being the viceroy anorak was only a little bit less difficult than being henry kissinger's personal assistant. bissinger didn't speak to me for quite a while. he was furious. when i became editor of time, we invited for the 75th anniversary all people who had been on the cover of time to come back to a party. and i was wondering whether he would come thundering to my office and my assistant says it can be kissinger. he says well, walter -- my first reaction is this is if they are henry kissinger or someone doing henry kissinger's accent. i can't fall for this. i just have to not saying anything. and kissinger said, even a hundred years war have to admit and at some point. i will come to your party. people in nations that have been permanent friends or enemies, only permanent interests. that said, having gone through the process with dr. kissinger, i decided next time around to write about somebody who had been dead for 200 years. that was dr. franklin. i wanted to read

it's one of those wonderfully jerry manned erd districts.d get so many more jobs and more money for our area if my congressman were replaced with someone who were receptive to all the new technologies. but we have nothing but stale. that's one of the problems with these districts, is you get someone who is not challenged and you get just the most bland, uninspired representation. host: when you say game changer, what's the drive time between the two points you mentioned? guest: if you leave at like 3:00 in the morning, you can get into l.a. in two hours. it's maybe 120, 150. what i'm really hoping is that it goes through heart of orange county as well. i mean, it's going to change everything because like in the san francisco bay area, with bart, which is, by the way, something the affluent take in san francisco. public transportation is usually associated with lower socio economic groups. the thing about high-speed rail , and like the bart system insistance that they build and design well, is that it's not just people who can't afford transp
