    Have you ever seen the owner of MTV?

    Never in a million years would you think this billionaire would own something as wild and on the edge as MTV.

CBS, UPN Network, BET, Comedy Channel, TV Land, Spike. Infinity broadcasting and billboard advertising. Blockbuster video stores. 1,700 movie theaters. Simon & Schuster. Famous Music which owns the publishing rights to over 100,000 songs, including music from The Godfather.

    Viacom employs 122,000 people. Has Gross Revs of 24 Billion and Nets about $4 Billion a year.

                                          By the way, his birth name is Murray Rothstein.

                                              What's a better name for getting into Harvard like he did.

                                              Murray Rothstein or Sumner Redstone?

                                              You know how those Boston Blue Bloods think.

                                                      "damn it feels good to be a gangsta"

                                                                      When Viacom originally bought MTV, it wasn't as "on the edge" as it is today. They bought it back when they played music videos 24hrs a day with brief interuption for stupid VJ antics. Back then there was no Real World, Beavis and Butthead or Jackass.
                                                                      I post on GFY so that when people ask me what I do,

They bought it back when they played music videos 24hrs a day with brief interuption for stupid VJ antics. Back then there was no Real World, Beavis and Butthead or Jackass.
