Viacom’s Paramount Pushes Out Vice Chair in Shake-Up

Los Angeles Times: Paramount Pictures’ woeful year at the box office claimed a casualty on Friday with the firing of the studio’s vice chairman, Rob Moore. The shake-up follows a string of theatrical misfires, including the summer’s biggest flop, “Ben-Hur.” Paramount is expected to lose as much as $450 million in the current fiscal year for parent company Viacom.
