A positive step by Sony. After a less than stellar year in films compared to last year and a shot across the bows from 3rd Point Sony are reacting by looking to appoint someone new from a US media back ground and with the continuing fiscal discipline with cuts in the entertainment division and a focus on profitability Sony are reacting in a positive way. They already gave marketing Chief Marc Weinstock the boot after a run of flops at the box office and have said they will focus more on profitable TV and release less films going forward.
A return to making continued profit and a good return for shareholders is obviously the aim. Continued change at Sony as long as it is with goal of making the company profitable again should be viewed as nothing but positive.
