Regarding Armstrong’s rocky relationship with Wall Street (and a recent proxy fight, which aggravated that relationship), Armstrong tells OMMA Global attendees: “Our strategy is crystal
clear … You either believe in our differentiated strategy, or (you don’t).”
(That crystal clear strategy, in short, involves “differentiated” content
complimented by deep Project Devil-led -- as well as highly programmatic, high frequency, highly-scaled -- ad opportunities.)
Rare among CEOs, Armstrong is all in, reminding us that
he’s put tens of millions of dollars of my own money into AOL. “That’s unique,” he says.
