der neue ceo von impact media (ehemals team communication), michael j. solomon hat einiges vor. so will er team schnell wieder profitabel machen. und nicht nur das: er plant, aus team einen der grössten unabhängigen tv-anbieter zu machen.

zuerst dachte ich genau dies. nachdem ich mich jetzt aber mit der person solomon beschäftigt habe, glaube ich nicht, das hier nocheinmal die anleger abgezockt werden sollen. folgende fakten zum neuen ceo habe ich gefunden (vielleicht zur einstimmung nochmal das interview und die anderen threads anhören/lesen):
