What are your main responsibilities within your current role?
My main responsibilities are geared around helping guide ABC, basically determining where we want to be on the network for the next year and understanding the financial impact of those decisions.
This involves deciding which shows need to come back and which shows should go away. It also includes looking at the overall cost of content and understanding all the other impacts that a TV network deals with.
We also consider ABC's place within a larger entertainment company like Disney, where there are many other businesses and stakeholders to account for.
