MIKE ON KCRW: Chatting About Fox's Changes on "The Business" and "The Simpsons" Marathon on "Press Play"



On Monday's episode of KCRW's The Business, Kim Masters and I tackled these hot topics:

- Fox chairmen Gary Newman and Dana Walden name David Madden as president of entertainment for the network.

- Upfront ad dollars are down both in broadcast and cable networks for the first time since 2009.

- Amazon goes to battle again, this time against Disney.

Listen below to the whole episode (our banter kicks things off) and stay tuned to Kim's interesting interview with Neal Baer:



Meanwhile, on Monday's Press Play with Madeleine Brand we tackled:

TV channel FXX is airing all 552 episodes of The Simpsons in a 288-hour, 12-day marathon that starts on Thursday. Outlander and HBO’s The Leftovers have been renewed. And what are the Creative Arts Emmys, and why did Bill Maher’s show win one?
