CableFAX: The Magazine's ultimate cable industry power list.
As always we’ve added several wrinkles to the 100 this year.
Social Media Quotient: We asked the 100 to rate themselves, from 1 to 10, on their proficiency and use of social media; 1= a novice, 10 = obsessed.
Age: A sticky question for many. Most of the 100 submitted their age or sent a humorous reply. We guessed at others and hoped not to offend.
Comcast-NBCU: As we went to press the deal had not been finalized, and while there’s a chance it won’t be, it looked increasingly like it would.
Thank you for spending some time with the 2009 edition of The CableFAX 100.
