Now, is that right . David over the past 15 years, one of the most successful ceos in the world has been bob iger. He led disney to its greatest heights, increasing the market value by 400 . He did that through acquisitions of 21st century fox, lucasfilm, pixar, and Marvel Entertainment. What is he going to do next . During the time that you were the ceo, the stock market value of the company went up about 450 and the market my big regret is that i didnt back you and buy stock, but you must be very pleased with what you accomplished. Proud would probably be the right word to use. I inherited a company that was renowned and had been quite successful, but had also gone through a period of difficulty. There was a lot of work to do.

You have wrichb the book with Historical Context of research but also understanding that kissinger knew what we know now. Thats the second wonderful thing about your book is the fact you used neither anachronistic views nor hindsight. I was struck by this in the nixon library, the point you were talking about earlier, tom, the fact they were so obsessed with the 72 election. Youre sitting there going, why are you obsessed .

Susan Harold Holzers is our second hour about your new book the president s versus press. While i invite people to find the first hour, for those who havent seen it, whats that the jist of your new book . Mr. Holzer the thesis is we may believe we are living through the most chaotic and unpleasant confrontational era ever between a president and the media. But in fact, its a long tradition in American Government and American Media history that president s and the press do not share the same interests and have been out war, and a sense, ever since george washington.
