Because the cable channels are more valuable, the NBC Universal boss says, "We've thought about it in the past, should we change the name of the company?" But Zucker — who also admitted he might run for public office — said "it doesn't disappoint us, it didn't upset us that people talked about that (that the cable channels are the real moneymakers). That's who we are." (scroll down)

Based on his track record at NBC, about the only thing he would be qualified to run for is dog catcher.

He can't run a TV channel, how's he gonna run, whatever public office he wants to run? The guy's a joke. The good thing if he does run, no one would vote for him and he would see what a joke he really is.

The guy clearly has no repect for his profession. How he manages to stay in power is beyond me.
