Annotation |
The author, a business reporter at the Denver Post, tells the story of cable television's rise and the launch of its arch-competitor, direct broadcast satellite. In such characters as John Malone, Rupert Murdoch, Charlie Ergen, Bill Gates and Al Gore, he has plenty of fodder. The world the book details is one of constantly shifting alliances and allegiances and Ludlum-esque political and business intrigues.
