Sort of in line with that. i have known chris since he was executive producer of "cbs this morning" and hes someone known for hiring talented people and letting them do their jobs, which is a little different way of going about things than the previous guy in the job, jeff zucker. it will be interesting to see how far he lets the people underneath him take some of these coverage ideas and coverage decisions. you were talking about the 9:00 p.m. slot and chris said he wanted to do experimentation...

Many business leaders dislike experimentation. They firmly believe in sticking to the way things are done. But fear of failure is a sure path to organisational failure.

>> when the 90s began, we started to see a lot of experimentation. and "the simpsons" i think in some senses was inspired by not necessarily hatred of television, but a distrust of a lot of the ways in which television was talking to us. >> tv respects me. it laughs with me. not at me. >> youre stupid. >> doh! >> i think the sitcoms of the 80s were such a warm, safe, humor. >> i love you guys. >> you see? the kids, they listen to the rap music, which gives them the brain damage. >> and i think t...

But it�*s interesting how we reward risk—taking in the private sector. we allow the venture capitalists to brag about it, but as soon as a civil servant makes a mistake, front page of the newspaper. so the question you�*re asking is not onejust about long—termism in the public sector, but also, what is the human—resource strategy that we actually need within the civil service that allows both long—termism, but also the welcoming of that kind of experimentation and trial and error and...

It was about energy—friendly technologies. that phrase, five—year plan, is very important, isnt it? what you dont write much about in your book is policy, �*cause youre an economist, not a politician. but isnt the reality that the short—termism of democratic politicians, the degree to which they have to think about the problems of people today rather than next year, or in a decades time, it undermines much of your mission—based economics. thats why in the book, i spend a lot of time lo...

Mark, his words indeed. and there are plenty of other: reasons for optimism out there. weve seen it at school board meetings across the country where parents are refusing to allow their children to be pandemic lab rat for indoctrination and experimentation. and we also see hope in the faces of the thousands of young people, including my two sons who gathered today in washington for the annual marched t for life. its not necessarily convenient or evennno fun to march in freezing dreary washington...

Say, the electoral one. so the people who come in to lead it, they come in for 4—5 years. its not necessarily with the electoral cycle, timed to those four years, and they literally are there to take kind of big bets, take risks, but on big public problems. the way that theyve actually organised their own institution is by welcoming risk—taking and experimentation, which you talked about, because civil servants make mistakes. but its interesting how we reward risk—taking in the private sec...
