welcome to "titans at the table."h network founder charlie ergen has always been something of a fearless renegade. from being thrown out of casinos for counting cards to selling satellites out of his car trunk around colorado. ergen led a group that created echostar in the 1980's and then started dish in the next decade, upending the traditional cable tv world. in the process, he has become one of the richest men in america, worth nearly $20 billion. ergen stepped out of the spotlight in 2011, handing the ceo rein to joe clayton. but just four years later, the founder is back in the hot seat as television undergoes another revolution. video, moving on to your second screen. like the satellite tv business in its early days, ergen wants to be at the forefront of this change by creating a new, over the top product called sling tv and buying up billions of dollars worth of wireless assets. assets that he says can be used to build a legitimate competitor to at&t and verizon. when we first sat down for our interview at his
