CNNMoney’s Paul La Monica writes Friday about how the splitting of Viacom into two different entities has been viewed pretty positively by the Street and business-thinkers, and what that means for the future. One of the theories included in the article is that the big company mentality might hinder the ability for some of the smaller pieces to function as well as they previously did - even though there might be financial savings elsewhere within the blending of the companies.
Forget stock splits, howabout brand splits?

CNN made a big mistake when they let an itelligent class-act newscaster like Aaron Brown go. I have been a loyal CNN watcher for many years, but I miss Aaron Brown’s honesty and down-to-earth presentation on Newsnight so much that I am exploring other networks in the hopes of soon finding him there. Except for Lou Dobbs, I will not watch CNN again unless they are smart enough to rehire Mr. Brown and accord him the respect he so richly deserves!
