John Landgraf
Title: CEO, FX Networks
Education: BA, Pitzer College

Apple or Samsung? Apple

Beatles or The Rolling Stones? Beatles

My peers would be surprised to learn… that for the most part I think their work is excellent.

I watch the majority of programming on this device: A 65-inch, hi-definition, flat screen television.

I learned from my kids… that the news business, as currently configured, makes children think the world is as bad as it has ever been and getting worse (even though that is objectively untrue).

I wish Congress would just… put the American people first.
