	Ken Auletta :: Articles - John Malone: Flying Solo
		Malone worshipped his father, and refers to him affectionately as "an intellectual with white socks." His mother was a world-class swimmer; she earned a master's degree in education from Temple University, and interrupted a teaching career to bring up her children.
		Malone says he won't spoil his own children--Tracy, who has a two-year-old daughter, lives with her husband in the Denver area, and Evan is a senior at the University of Pennsylvania--by leaving them the billion-dollar fortune he has amassed.
		Malone is among those who say no. People who say that TCI is a de-facto monopoly, even though it owns only one in four cable boxes, predicate the claim on their belief that no programming service could survive without access to Malone's subscribers.

		Malone pulled off the regular schedule of shows and replaced it with a screen that showed nothing but the mayor's and city manager's names and phone numbers.
		Malone could sit, calm and utterly still, for hours, and he often did so, especially when he was negotiating with an adversary or a person who controlled an object of his desire.
		Malone was an intensely focused man, and his focus was almost invariably directed toward a single objective: money, the getting of it.

		And through most of it, Malone was nowhere to be found, stoking rumors--since proven incorrect--that he was ill, soured on the cable industry, or just plain disinterested in running his once-robust company.
		Malone skimped on upgrades, made headlines about ordering set-top boxes for digital channels, and then quietly put off buying the boxes when the technology was slow in coming.
		Malone is both evil and henpecked, moving to Denver to please his wife, Leslie, who wants her husband at home more than at the office.

		The only thing that could be stopping Malone from pressing his case for freedom seems to be a provision that he tucked away in the AT&T-TCI merger agreement.

		In late June, Malone cut a deal with Deutsche Telekom (DT) to pay an estimated $4 billion for the German phone giant's stakes in six regional cable-TV companies that serve 10 million households, nearly half the cable-connected homes in Germany.
		Malone's holdings in programmers such as Discovery Channel and Rupert Murdoch's News Corp. (NWS), is a big advantage, particularly in Germany where original cable programming has been scant.
		Malone is known for driving a hard bargain, and they wonder what kind of tolls he may demand once he owns the infrastructure.

		Although Malone did not respond to requests for an interview, it would be reasonable to assume that he sometimes second-guesses his decision in June 1998 to sell the cable giant Tele-Communications Inc. for AT&T stock.
		Because Malone was not yet a director, he would not have been obliged to report the sale the Securities and Exchange Commission, and it appears that he did not.
		Malone is chairman of Liberty and his 100 million shares in the company are a supervoting stock that wield 10 votes a share.

	High-Wire Act - The elusive strategy of America's smartest media titan, John Malone. By Daniel Gross
		Last week, the news that the CEO of Liberty Media, John Malone, increased the size of his voting-share stake in Rupert Murdoch's News Corp. made headlines and held out the tantalizing prospect of a boardroom duel between two grizzled media titans.
		Malone joined ATandT's board, and TCI Ventures was folded into Liberty Media, which remained Malone's province and investment vehicle.
		In fact, this complicated deal, in which Malone swapped a chunk of voting shares and cash for a larger number of voting shares, would seem to run counter to his streamlining strategy of the past year.

	A Mogul's Migraine - Newsweek Business - MSNBC.com
		Malone, whom Al Gore once dubbed the head of "the cable cosa nostra," was for decades the foremost make-or-break player in cable, playing a pivotal role in launching Discovery, BET, QVC and most of Ted Turner's outlets, including CNN.
		Malone knows Murdoch's playbook, too, in part because they've often teamed up over the past 15 years for, among other things, a sports-programming partnership, acquisition of a satellite broadcaster and the $2.5 billion transaction for TV Guide.
		Malone, catching Murdoch off guard, swapped a huge block of nonvoting News Corp. stock and almost $700 million in cash for new shares that pushed his voting stake to 9.1 percent, second only to Murdoch's 30 percent.

		In this amazing interview, John Malone, the head of TCI and widely considered the Darth Vader of the infobahn, explains the real reason why the Bell Atlantic deal fell through, his eye-opening battlefield perspective on the telecoms wars, and why he'd like to shoot the chief of the FCC (just kidding -- we think).
		There's even a cable executive at John Malone's Denver headquarters who is quietly planning to launch the Democracy Channel as a sort of 24-hour branch of government.
		Although John Malone, aided and abetted by Wired interviewer David Kline ("Infobahn Warrior," Wired 2.07, page 86), did his best to dispel the Darth Vader image he has acquired, he dropped enough hints in the interview to prove that he clearly represents the Dark Side of the future of the infobahn.

		In 1973, 29-year-old John Malone became the CEO of a debt-ridden Denver cable company, Tele-Communications, Incorporated; in 1998, he sold TCI for $48 billion.
		Malone is a complicated hero; focused and driven, he built his empire largely through clever, complicated financing deals that sidestepped bank rules and taxes and enriched an inside group of shareholders.
		Using these tactics, Malone acquired hundreds of companies and was viewed as a monopolist, creating a political backlash in Washington that caused him to be called Darth Vader, Genghis Khan, and the Godfather rolled into one.
