John Malone

Chairman
Liberty Media Corporation

Malone has been a cable legend since he first ran Tele-Communications Inc. back in the early 1970s. Besides being there at the founding of many channels, such as Discovery, his influence has put most of them on the map and his forceful business skills willed cable into becoming a key consumer medium for entertainment and news. Malone began his career in 1963 at Bell Telephone Laboratories, joined McKinsey & Company in 1968 and in 1970 he became Group Vice President at General Instrument. He is not shy about expressing his opinions either (see the pattern?).
