Intresting reading. I was reminded of my one-time corporate affiliation with 
The New York Times Co.'s group of regional TV stations and publications. I 
watched the transition from profession-based leadership, i.e., people 
passionate about journalism, to bean-counter leadership, i.e., people 
passionate about the acquisition of money. It wasn't pretty, at least if you 
were profession based.
