RIP: A TV Legend Passes Away

Tom Moore, who helped ABC compete with the big boys back in the 1960s as the network's head of programming, has died at the age of 88. Among the secrets of his success? He began targeting advertiser-friendly young viewers. So, in a way, I think this makes him at least partially responsible for (ick) Laguna Beach.
